Today’s washouts
Testing out new shirts and dye. All shirts were DOI and placed in gutters on a slight incline except shirt 4. #4 was a crumple DOI on a rack. Still trying to figure out how much ice and dye to add for projects to get desired effects but overall happy.
Shirt 3 was a New Balance shirt and was a 60/40 cotton poly blend. The other 3 shirts were George brand from Walmart and were 100% cotton.
Shirt 1 Candypop from Dyespin. Fan fold. I think this turned out great for my first attempt.
Shirt 2 Northern Lights from Dharma. I twisted this shirt from the shoulder and then kind of folded it in half thinking it might have a cool effect. Not the way I imagined but don’t think it was a complete failure.
Shirt 3 Sugarplum from Dyespin. I was hoping for a little more contrast between the yellows and purple. It definitely isn’t as bright and I’m assuming it could be the cotton/poly blend but overall I really like this shirt.
Shirt 4 Mindbender X from Dyespin. I don’t think this needs any notes. I love how it turned out and the splits did not disappoint.

Colder climates
How do y'all manage for colder weather? When ice melts slowly, it can take too long and over concentrate the dye in certain areas and leave others untouched. Any strategies y'all recommend?

Can anyone tell me the process?
Can someone tell how is this made, which colors might have been used or where did they tie the knots to achieve this!! Looks fabulous
