Our tie-dyes are unique. Each is hand dyed in brilliant
colourfast Procion MX dyes for very bright kids. Tie-dyes are fun and suprisingly
practical. (Nobody will notice that banana stain!) Consider it affordable
worn art.
The Procion dyes we use have been in industrial and
craft use since the 1950's. Unlike other dyes the colours are actually bonded
to the cotton at a molecular level so the clothes will not bleed or fade.
They are very safe and non-toxic.
Over time I have developed a range of tie-dye styles
which are to an extent predictable and a range of colour combinations which
work well. The beauty of hand dyed work is however that no two pieces will
ever be exactly the same. I am still prepared for surprises every time I unwrap
the finished pieces. It's a bit like Christmas really!
