But how to set the colors? And what should the colors look like? Why no final products?

@heatherinparis 3 жыл бұрын

There definitely need to be more instructions and some final product shots!

Right maybe we could google it i think she was not understanding that when you do a how to vlog that when your not showing how to makes a bad vlog ...but maybe the socks shes making will be her next vlog 🤔 then again maybe not gl trying to figure it out hey google it I bet that will give a better how to 🤷‍♀️

Stephanie, that's an excellent point. Without using a mordant to set the dye colours will fade after each wash

excellent video explanation...it is so nice to see that people are looking for natural products to do diy projects...When I was 6 or 7 I discovered plants that gave different colors when I placed water and pressed the leafs with a rock...those days where the beginning of a diy maker.....

I tried this with eggs last Easter. But the red cabbage turned out blue, not pink. Wonder if it works on fabric differently. Would have been nice to see the final results on fabric. And one more question: how to make sure that the color in the dyed fabric doesn't wash out after washing it a few times. Doesn't it it need to be fixed/set somehow with a chemical?

One part vinegar to 4 parts water boil one hour to set your dyes i just googled it yw 😉

I think she was debunking a video which had shown you could dye fabric using spinach because that actual method didn't work. As with many plants you probably could use spinach but you need the same amount by weight of dried plant material to fabric. You need to simmer the plant material in a pan for up to an hour to extract the dye. Then after straining out the plant material you need to simmer the fabric in the dye solution - after using a mordant on the fabric. Also you really need to use a mordant, as mentioned in the other video, to set the dye, otherwise over time it will wash out.

Would increasing the amount of cabbage but using the same amount of water increase the color intensity?

Did she just refer to the food processor as a blender.???
