Today I am demonstrating how to tie-dye a Magenta Mandala & Spine pattern on a t-shirt using the . (Hot Water Irrigation) tie-dye method. This is a step by step tie-dye tutorial video where I cover the entire process beginning with the folding and drawing of the mandala design on to the shirt. After that I tie off the mandala using sinew and pleat fold the spine on to the back of the shirt. For the next step I secure the spine using kite string and then scrunch the remaining material of the shirt and secure with rubber bands. Now that the shirt is all tied up it's time to apply the chosen fiber reactive procion dye powder colors directly on top of the shirt, and then a thin layer of soda ash on top of the dye powders to help the dye react with the fabric of the shirt. Next it's time to move on over to the sink to apply the hot water. For proper hot water application I first use a spray bottle for a light mist to help saturate the dye without it blowing all over, and after that I use my garden pump sprayer that has been filled with water that has been heated to 175 degrees for proper saturation. For the final steps I let the shirt sit 10-15 minutes, give it a good rinse, and jump right on into the reveal our new tie-dye Magenta Mandala & Spine t-shirt. I hope you enjoy and as Tie Dyeing! ***Before working with procion dyes or any kind of fiber reactive dye please make sure to pay special attention to all labels including directions, warnings, and first aid instructions***. I highly recommend gloves, eye protection, and a respirator or dust mask per these instructions.
