Prank writes – “So, tye-dying is really simple. All you need are some dies, a fixer, some fabric, and something to do the tying with. I like the Procion Dyes–They’re very bright and are easy to mix. You can get them online, or at your local art store. Get a bunch of colors. You’ll also want urea. You can get a bag of this at your local art store–it usually comes as a bag of these small white balls. Get some kind of fabric to die–100% cotton works best, bust silk works too, and denim does, to some extent. Polyester, rayon, and the like won’t work at all. Finally, get some rubber bands or twine.”Link.

    FYI – Rayon dyes perfectly with Fiber Reactive dyes sometimes even better than cotton. It’s made from pure cellulose and that’s what those dyes are for.
