Hello members of Steem Skillshare Community. I believe everyone is doing wonderfully well. Today, I have an amazing art work to share with you all. This art work is Dyeing of Fabric and it requires a lot of creativity.
Dyeing of fabric simply means applying colors to fabric to give a beautiful design. Dyeing is of different stages / processes which I will be explaining below.

The materials / equipments needed are;

  • Fabric
  • Dye ( which is the color)
  • Caustic soda
  • Hydrosulphite
  • Bowl
  • Spoon
  • Hot water
  • Cold water

It is quite simple you know! Let's see the outcome by following the below procedures;
Dyeing of fabric has different methods, I will be showing you the type called "Mabels".

STEPS

Step 1

The first step is to note the front of the fabric. Wet it in cold water.

Step 2

Put the fabric on a flat surface then squeeze it to get your preferred design.

Step 3

Prepare chemicals with the following processes;

  • Put your color into a bowl ( please make sure light color comes first when working with more than one color).
  • Add caustic soda and then wait for hot water to be ready.
  • Add the hydrosulphite
  • Pour hot water into the bowl immediately.
  • Stir the mixture

Thanks for the kind words.

Been long I saw t&d wears. Thought the art died. Good to know some people still have the skills. Maybe I'll try a native outfit with it soon.

I just learned the skill this week and it was my first time seeing it.😂
