@Kasi did you use the Dylon dye pod? I dyed some more shirts on Sunday I can post too. Also purple.

[Kasi]

@Oaktavia

Yes I did. How much did you use out of the pod for each one. Says you can do 1.2 kg clothes

@pechelman

This tread is for dyeing colours only. Making it simple.

The largest load I have done was one of the canvas IH bags from Gosport and two shirts. They came out still pretty saturated. Not sure if it means wet clothes in weight or dry. But I probably wouldn't try more than 3 or 4 shits for one pod. You can add up to five pods to a load but that would be more for like a pair of white bibs or a blanket or something big and heavy.

[Kasi]

@Oaktavia. I got you.

Got to weight it out right. Otherwise may get darker

@Kasi that looks good, love the black on black

@jerkules

Colour called ash grey.. will be doing a black one to tonight. ️️

I did these a few weeks ago. One of the black shirts had some bleach spots on it, one of the shirts was Navy and I didn't love wearing a navy blue shirt, and one was white, and I've always wanted a red IH tee.

[Kasi]

Some good colours there.

I could do red to

Posted some pics in the product thread after dyeing - this is how my Dice collab tee turned out with Dylon….

[Kasi]

I will be using that pink

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot it's cool to see how the colors of the silk screens interact with the dye color around them.
