Tie and Dye Art

The tie-dye procedure is consists of several steps to be followed to yield the final product. The fabric is folded equally according to the design to be formed. After the formation of the design, the cloth is properly tied using threads over the designs. It is then soaked in the water and is kept aside. Later, the color is mixed with reagents in the water and mixed well. The fabric is then soaked properly in this solution for some time. Now remove the threads used to tie the designs and then rinse the fabric in water with different temperatures till the time the water runs mostly clear.
