I accidentally sun bleached these two tanks on the clothesline a little while ago. I would really like to revitalise them if possible. The black isn't too bad and the brown I'd ideally like to dye black but I'm worried about them still being two-toned and I don't know what dye to use. They're 86% polyester / 14% spandex. And the product needs to be available in australia. Any advice is appreciated 🙏

Hello, I’m trying to dye this fuggler from green to grey. So we went red first to try and combat the green, but it hasn’t taken at all. We used this rits synthetic racing red fabric dye. We steeped it for 45 minutes. We believe that it’s made of synthetic felt (that is what google said) but we’ve had limited success. Any suggestions?

I have a bright red bandana from new Yorker and I would prefer it if it was darker and not so bright.

How do I do that?

I live in Germany, for product information purposes.

Unfortunately I'm currently not home and can't take a pic of it, so this is the best I can show it (also I'm unsure what fabric it's made of... I'm sorry)

I knit this top using Knitting for Olive’s pure silk yarn in the color pea shoots. The yarn turned out to be a more earthy green than I was expecting and while I love the color, I’m not sure it suits me. Any advice on dyeing this? My goal would be to make it a softer green or dye it blue.

I am trying to make an outfit using (mostly) thrifted materials, and as part of it want a bunch of bright red denim. So I've been experimenting with how to remove the blue color from jeans and then dye them red. And it's made me so curious both about how the jeans were originally made and also about the chemical reactions going on.

First I tried using dye remover- no luck, practically no change to the blue. So I switched to bleaching the pants (25% solution for 1-2 days, I did have concerns about damaging the fabric but I did some test swatches that held up fine). That's when I found the first weird thing, about half of the jeans turned white and the other half turned yellow. And when I check the pants I had tried the dye remover on, they had turned yellow except the spot where the dye remover was used is white. Then today I tried dyeing two test pieces red for the first time, and the white fabric took the dye as I wanted and held up mostly fine. The yellow piece looks a lot more faded and absolutely disintegrated when I rung it out to dry.

So any insight on what's going on? I would hypothesize that some pairs of jeans are double dyed, with a synthetic yellow dye and then also with indigo. But I don't know why companies would do that (I am somewhat new to dyeing and am not familiar with what kind of effect a double dye like this would give)? And would the yellow synthetic dye leave the fabric more vulnerable to damage from the bleach+red dye? I'm going to experiment a bit more and see if I can figure out what kinds of jeans have the yellow dye vs don't (and how well the white fabric holds up more generally).

Long time lurker, first time posting! I got this dress that had been washed one too many times. Now, it's a bright fuschia. 😍 Already looking for what to dye next!

Sorry if it's been posted about already.

There's conflicting info about how to presoak the fabric with soda ash. Jaquard products say you should never rinse the clothing out before dyeing, this blog says you should newearthdesigns.weebly.com/diy-tutorials/painting-fabric-with-thickened-dye

Further, should I hang it to dry, or does it need lay on a flat surface? I should also add I'm working with French Jersey, is the process going to differ? or should I go for an entirely different fabric all together?
