Robb's been having too much fun with this, it's my turn.  Want to demonstrate a technique we tried called ruching. (from Hand Dyed Fabric Made Easy by Adriene Buffington) We used bandana squares treated with soda ash.

-Lay damp fabric flat with a string across one end and roll up into a tube.

-Turn the roll into a donut (magic trick) and tie the ends together slightly gathering the fabric. (this is the ruching process)

-Place 'donut' in a bowl and drizzle dye on one side.

-Turn over and drizzle another color.

-Put in plastic bag and let cure for a few hours.

-Untie and unroll and rinse. Wash with Synthropol as you would a t-shirt.

Note our screen door over the wheelbarrow. It is great for rinsing out dye.
