Transform textiles through color using natural or synthetic dyes. Learn tie-dye patterns (spiral, crumple, stripes), shibori folding techniques, ombré gradients, or solid color dyeing. Work with plant-based natural dyes (avocado pits make pink, onion skins make gold) or commercial fiber-reactive dyes for vibrant, permanent colors.
Revive faded clothing, customize white items, create unique patterns, or dye fabric for sewing projects. Understand fiber types (cotton, wool, silk respond differently), color theory (mixing custom shades), and mordants (fixatives ensuring colorfastness). Each dyed piece is unique. Sustainable way to refresh wardrobes.
Dyeing connects chemistry, art, and tradition—humans have dyed textiles for millennia.
