The production process of tie-dyeing is divided into the following steps:
1, Design: First you need to determine the pattern or design you want. This can be any combination of shapes and colors, depending on your personal preference.
2. Prepare fabrics: choose fabrics to tie-dye, such as cotton, silk and hemp. Make sure that the cloth is clean without any residue and shrinkage.
3. Choose dyes: Choose the right dyes according to the patterns and colors you designed. You can try to use natural plant dyes, such as indigo, madder red and so on.
4. Knot: Knot the cloth according to the pattern you designed. The tightness and density of knots will affect the final dyeing effect.
5. Dyeing: Put the knotted cloth into the dye solution, and decide the dyeing time according to the dye and color depth you choose.
6. Water washing: put the dyed cloth into clean water and wash off the excess dye until the water quality becomes clear.
7. Drying: Dry the cloth to avoid direct sunlight, so as not to affect the color effect.
8. Remove the thread: After drying, remove the knotted thread to show your design.
9. Cleaning: Finally, clean the tie-dyed cloth and dry it.
