thanks kayla! the ink didn’t really run, but faded a bit after washing, and my white socks that were in the same wash turned a bit pink. i did also ironed it before washing to try and heat-set the colour. hope this helps!

Hi! I love this idea! I really want to try it, but I was wondering how you should wash it afterwards? Does the ink run?

thank you, cheryl! i made five or six dots close together in a circular formation, then drop rubbing alcohol directly on top of the dots. the colour will spread on its own into a circle. can’t take credit for this method though, i learned it from the tutorials i’ve linked to in the post. other than that it’s juts the placement of the “tie-dyed” circles, which is just intuitive. let your creativity flow! hope this helps!

What a cool experiment! I guess there’s a tutorial out there for everything, but who knew? It turned out just beautifully, and no one will guess how you did it :-).
