Yahoo Answer(s)Usually, tie dye kits are for shirts. And, I know I probably shouldn't use the same amount for the soccer socks as I would for shirts. So, how much would you think I would use for them, and any other additional details I should think about while tie dying them? Oh, plus, could you mix two colors together to get a new tie dye color if the color you want doesn't come with the kit? Thanks!Answer: You can use a good tie-dye kit on any natural fiber, such as cotton, linen, or bamboo, and also on rayon, since it is a cellulose fiber. Unfortunately, soccer socks are usually made of synthetic fiber blends that are not suitable for dyeing with tie-dye dyes. (All purpose dyes such as Rit don't work on synthetic fibers, either.) If your socks are 10% spandex or nylon and 90% cotton, you can dye them just like 100% cotton. Don't mix your dyes up any differently than you would for tie-dyeing shirts; a pound of cotton is a pound of cotton, whether it's in a shirt or in socks. Just follow the usual instructions. You can dye several pairs of socks with the amount of dye you'd use for a single shirt.
If your socks are made of nylon or wool, you can dye them with tie-dye dyes if you substitute an acid, such as vinegar, for the soda ash dye fixative. Nylon and wool both require an acid instead of a base to dye. If your tie-dye kit does not have a soda ash as a separate pre-soak, but instead has the soda ash already mixed into the dye powder, then you can't use it for nylon at all. Surprisingly, all purpose dyes such as Rit, which work so poorly on cotton, are okay for use on nylon, if you add vinegar to your dyebath.
If your soccer socks are made of polyester, then you can't use any ordinary type of dye at all. Neither the Procion dyes in good tie-dye kits, nor all purpose dyes such as Rit, will color polyester at all. You can dye polyester by boiling it with a special polyester dye such as "iDye Poly" which is available by mail-order only, or you can use a good thin fabric paint that is designed to mimic dye, such as Dye-Na-Flow or Dharma Pigment Dyes. Or, you can make iron-on designs on paper with disperse dye fabric crayons, then iron them onto your synthetic-fiber socks.
The dyes in tie-dye kits are perfect for mixing together. Mix turquoise with yellow to make green, mix turquoise and red together to make purple, and mix red and yellow together to make orange. A little red mixed with turquoise makes royal blue, and blue added to orange makes brown. You can also order your tie-dye Procion dyes premixed in any color you like. Dharma Trading Company and PRO Chemical & Dye both sell over a hundred colors of Procion MX type dye which is the very best type of dye for tie-dyeing. Their prices are very good, too, because each two-ounce jar of dye will dye twelve shirts, and the dye stays bright for years on your clothing. (Compare that to Rit dye, where each box of dye will dye only a single shirt, and then it fades almost immediately.) I have narrowed down my options to 3: A green tie (a lime and forest green pattern); A red tie with yellow in the pattern; or A purple tie (violette and darker purple). I have a dinner tomorrow night. It's not a particularly fancy dinner, but the people there will be fairly concervative in dress. I want to make an impression, but in a good way.Answer: The Red!!! I have a front room that is more like a three seasons' room and it has windows across three of the walls with no break in between. I have sheers on the outside and chocolate brown on the inside for privacy. In the warmer months I'd like to tie back the curtains to allow more light in but there isn't a place I can screw traditional tie backs into? I need more of a free hanging tie back, looking for ideas because I can figure out how to make it.Answer: here are 3 methods you can use all are inexpensive solutions .
1 as you have continues windows make up some tie backs that will fit like this right end and middle end tie together.
middle end right and right window tie together .
then the right end and the left end single curtains a single tie back each with a string attached then allow it to be a hooked on to the stop ends so effectively you have one curtain then two then two again then one.
hope you can understand what i am saying there .
2/ get some stick on hooks and the use your tie backs the traditional way.
3/
putting stop ends on the ends of each pair of curtains on the rail but behind the last runner using some string attach to the tie back and the stop end you can decide how long the string is so it gives you a pulled back drape effect .
sorry if this sounds complicated but its really not i have done this myself very effectively Results from other sourcesHow would you tie dye white soccer socks with a regular tie dye kit?Usually, tie dye kits are for shirts.
