You are so inspirational Mr tie-dye! This can be for Halloween but it could also be made for everyday! I love the Moon and I think I'll make this for my youngest great-nephew! I'm going to make a very light Blue Moon with some gray spots for the craters. I'm going to add some yellow, blue and red stars on the rest of the shirt! I don't know yet if they have glow-in-the-dark colored dyes but if they do, I'm going to use them! Thank you once again Mr tie-dye, you're the best!💙
An older gentlemen just came in my store wearing a panda tye dye shirt and said you made it for him and my wife and I love you videos so far! He said he helped ya out and gifted it to him
Awesome!! and yes that must have been Robert .... has a beard like Santa?? .... the Panda is a stitched design and I do have a couple videos that show the process on how I made it
Your videos are awesome and I appreciate you taking the time to enlighten me on different techniques. I am definitely a fan as well as a student. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this technique! I have been trying to figure out how to do a crescent moon . I love all your videos and you have inspired me greatly! Love, Laura's Muse
I love your videos. I'm wondering if you could show how to tie dye a snowflake. I want to make Christmas tees for my family so I need to start soon. Thanks for all the great ideas.
It would be super cool to do the moonphase! I love the Goddess symbol Tee you were wearing in the Darkside to The Moon Tee video...I was looking for it and found this.
the goddess symbol I was wearing in the other video ... I folded the round moon, but stitched the sliver moon so I could gt the detail I wanted ... have fun creating!!
@@MrTieDye Yes I just got some nice organic cotton fabric I am soaking now..I will let you know how it goes I am making a moon phase comforter and curtains using your techniques! Thank you so much for the inspiration!!
@@capntresi5706 Yes I did a silk shawl with fringe I gave to my dear friend as winter solstice /yule gift..I will get a photo and send you a link so you can see it
Love all your videos. Ive done this for a couple years using regular hobby lobby dyes and am only now upping the game to using the procion dyes, and I was wondering if mixing them with soda ash water is helpful like it is with the other kinds of dye? Thanks for all your videos, I cant stop watching them!
Thank you and yes you will love the new dyes ..... as for soda ash, I prefer to do a pre soak in soda ash... if you add it to the dyes, then they need to be used the same day as the soda ash activates them as soon as they are mixed with water and soda ash .... BUT, if you just mix the dyes with water, then they can be saved for future projects... I have mine around for 2-3 weeks and if you have a fridge, then they will last even longer
Beautiful work, and great videos. However I did not understand how you tied the string so that the lower part of moon came out white. I am only watching you on my iPad, because it' s sound is too low. Hope you can explain, som how. Thanks much, Yaffa.
Hello Yaffa, I am not sure I understand your question about the lower part of the moon being white?? ... here is a video on how I use the Kite string .... th-cam.com/video/nRKtNBZB5Qo/w-d-xo.html .... but I am not sure that is what you are asking... please explain more if you are talking about the folding or the finished results
Hi! I was wondering if you could do this on just the front of a shirt by separating the front and the back when folding. Also, if i were to position it straight up and down instead of at an angle could I just fold it in half normally like with a heart or other symmetrical object? Thank you!!
yes you can.... I would draw the fold line across the tee, line your moon shape up and draw it on and then pick up just the front of the tee at your fold line and then yes accordion fold like you would a heart... have fun!!
I have done both of those... both of them were stitched designs ... and I do have a few videos that show the process, but basically I draw half the image on a folded tee and then stitch the lines and filler space ..... th-cam.com/play/PLMEtBqB2BzuqTQ-6ymm5OcVb5jlv7oplr.html
no they are not .... I will address them separately though so you understand them both .... .... Soda ash (also called Sodium Carbonate) is used to activate the Procion dyes.... it can be mixed in with the dyes (some of the store bought kits have it in them) but it will activate the dyes as soon as you add water to them and then they will need to be used that same day..... SO, I will soak my tee shirts in soda ash and spin them out so they are damp and then I fold, tie and dye them .... AS for Urea... it can be added to the dyes and will help mix larger amounts of the powder into the water, it also is a wetting agent, so it will help keep your tees damp while you batch them ..... I use it myself, but I did not for the first 8 years of dyeing .... here is my soda ash video just in case you need it .... th-cam.com/video/vD1MSB0sAY8/w-d-xo.html
@@MrTieDye ok for that i understand...so how to keep the color bright not easily came out every wash...mine totally when i wash..color almost gone....im so frustated sodijm cabonate some kind same to the salt?i think the have special chemical for dye😅or different dye i still newbi for this😅 people laughing at me😂 maybe mine is cheap dye
@@jonpencuci what kind of dyes are you using?? I use fiber reactive Procion dyes as do many tie-dyers ... www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html ..... and this can make a HUGE difference in how your results turn out .... do you have photos of your results? you can send a photo here .... m.me/CarlMrTieDye
I find I have better control over how tight I tie things... so in some places I can pull the kite string very tight and others I can do it just tight enough to hold and I find it is easier to work with, once I practiced ...... BUT, that is not to say rubber bands are bad, I used them for 14 years before Zach and Jeremy showed me how to use the kite string
I made one a while back, I stitched it to keep the detail I wanted, but I have seen other dyers make them as well ... as you looking for a tutorial or to purchase one??
@@janahickey6528 I do not have one for the shied, but I do have a stitch video that shows the process I used ... th-cam.com/video/fIopj6TZkes/w-d-xo.html
I have done a wookie foot tee ... it is a stitched design to get the detail ... here is a pic on my FB ..... facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10208838636303524&set=a.10208746795607564&type=3&theater I do have a coupe videos on stitching that show the process I used to create the wookie foot ..... th-cam.com/video/F_wMza2VmQ8/w-d-xo.html
yeah it definitely take some practice ... I use those bottles with the tiny spout on them and apply the dye very slowly and if it looks too soggy, then I soak up some of the excess with clean dry rags ... just keep at it and you will get there ;-)

Do u have any advice on how to do an owl and a dragon? I have 2 orders amd idk what to do!! If u could help that would be awesome

Can you do an AT shirt for the Appalachian Trail? And if so, can you make it a fold instead of stitching?
I am pretty sure I can... so I will work on the design some and then will make a video of it
Thank you so much!

Why do you use string instead of rubber bands? Just asking☺

Just a strange question but have you or have you seen anyone attempts Harley Shield pattern? I’ve been looking to see if I could find one.
I made one a while back, I stitched it to keep the detail I wanted, but I have seen other dyers make them as well ... as you looking for a tutorial or to purchase one??
I was really looking for a tutorial.
I tried to find one on here but no luck.
@@janahickey6528 I do not have one for the shied, but I do have a stitch video that shows the process I used ... th-cam.com/video/fIopj6TZkes/w-d-xo.html
How long does a full bottle usually last you??
if I dye a tee all one color, I use about 1/2 - 3/4 of a 16 oz bottle of dye depending on how big the tee is .... is that what you were asking??
Yes, thank you very much!!
can you do a wookie foot? pretty please :3
