HI All.....I have spent a pleasant week dyeing 40/2 cotton for a friend. I used Procion MX dyes, and followed the immersion instructions that can be found at www.prochemical.com to the letter. I was very, very pleased with the depth of color and especially with only having to let each bath batch for an hour!! I dyed teal, dark teal, evergreen, yellowed teal, red, and of all things, medium grey. The grey was the hardest to get right, but I managed to get precisely the color I wanted. I wish I had had the forethought to take pics of the finished yarns, but I didn't remember before I sent them off to my friend. Since then I have dyed two skeins of 10/2 Tencel a brilliant fuchsia/red that is bright and wonderful. I am having a lot of fun! Next to dye is loom woven shibori done in chenille.....
Anyone else working with Procion MX dyes??
