How To Tie Dye: Split Spiral Design and Rinse Tips For Keeping The White Areas White
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- This is a tutorial video for a split spiral. I also take time to explain how to properly rinse a shirt that has white areas so that the white areas will remain white and not get stained from the dye colors on the shirt.

I was a little tired of spirals, but I LOVE this one! Love how you demonstrated how to leave a lot of white without bleeding, great job! I do also love how distinct the the colors are and how they blend together. Thanks, Angie!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much! 🙂
Showing and explaining not only techniques but also basic methodology of various steps is such a good thing, thank you. One of the reasons I liked Good Eats so much was it was more than just a cooking show. Informing your audience of more than just dying clothing, getting deeper into reasons and explanations, is an appealing aspect.
Thank you! I love science and I'm pretty curious too, so I like to know how things work and the reason for doing things a certain way. I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Wow I love how clearly you explain what you do and why you do it 🙏🏻 thank you! Your voice is also very nice to listen to ❤
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked it! 😀
Thank you so much for the video Angie. You always make us a little smarter with your explanation of what your process is.❤ The shirt came out really well. A patriotic Beauty.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it. 😊
Color catchers are awesome to keep the white white
I love color catchers. I use them regularly in my normal laundry.
Thanks for the great advice, Angie, my red, white and blue items will look better from now on using your tips.
Great - I'm glad it was helpful! 🙂
Great job Angie...love the shirt very patriotic 👍 i never knew how to do a split spiral. Thanks for showing that video and the tip on keeping the shirt white also 😊
Thank you! 🤗
I really like it when you explain why a technique is used. I’ve wondered why some dyers turn the shirts inside out to dye? Also why some dye with the front of the shirt on the bottom? Little tips make a big difference.
I like this split spiral it’s like fireworks spinning. 😊
Thank you! I dye with my shirts inside out to avoid speckling from undissolved dye. The speckles may be too large and show through to the front side of the shirt, but it helps catch some of the smaller ones. It's a habit with me now to turn them inside out. It is easier to turn them inside out too before putting them in the soda ash solution.
I dye some ice dyed designs with the shirt facing down because of the ice flow. On tall deep scrunch or wiffle ball designs, I think the cooler design and dye flow happens on the bottom as the dye splits and flows through the shirt. On the top where the dye is added, it doesn't have much time to make cool flow designs. I want the front to look the best, so I put it on the bottom.
A fun 4th spiral I've done is to take red and roll it out over one side of a spiral with a foam trim roller used for painting. Flip it over and do the other side with blue. You don't use so much that it soaks through so when it's done processing you have white in the middle of the pleats left - it really looks different! I'm going to try this with other color combinations and see how it comes out - say blue and yellow with enough to meet in the middle for green.
I'm sure those turned out looking really cool - great idea! The blue and yellow ones sound like a good plan. I've done shirts where I added color to one side and then use the foam brush and painted black on the back side, it's a great way to not add the dye on too thick to the shirt. 🙂
That is an amazing shirt and design Angie!!! Ive never aeen the split spiral before!!!
Thank you! 🙂
Fantastic! Your videos are very informative. Any newbie can watch them and be able to give it a try! Just like I once was!
Thank you so much! 😊
This is my favorite shit you've done yet! These are my favorite colors and they look fabulous!
Thank you, I'm really glad you like it! 😊
Very nice and patriotic, great job Angie.
Thank you so much! 🙂
That looks great!!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Great shirt. I used Sodium alginate. To get white.
That's a great way too! 🙂
I don't think I have ever seen a split spiral. It looks so cool switching colors like that. Your explanation was perfect. Thank you for doing a video like this. Could you dab a little out white Brite paste on the red spot? Did the red and blue make purple anywhere? Thanks for another great video.
Thank you! I don't think I've seen one either, but that was the best description I could think of for this design.
I probably could try a little OWB on that one spot. No the red and blue stayed separate and didn't mix on this shirt. I think it turned out really cool!
Love it!!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Neat pattern and outstanding explanations. I’ve been tie dying for years and I still learned new helpful things in your video.
One question. Does synthropol work like blue dawn does for soaking?
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yes, Synthrapol is like Dharma's Professional Textile detergent and both work very much like Dawn by neutralizing the pH.
Another beauty Angie thanks for the information😁✌️
My pleasure 😊
Thanks. Maybe a bit of Out White Bright and very hot water on that red spot.
That's a good idea! 🙂
That turned out great!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Fabulous effect Angie ! Question for you: Do you have a recipe for the soda ash solution that the shirt is soaked in initially?
Yes, I use 1 cup of dry sodium carbonate (soda ash) and dissolve it into 1 gallon of water. I usually add a little warmer water to a bucket and add the dry soda ash. I stir it until it dissolves and then add the rest of the gallon of water to the mixture and stir. If the dry soda ash doesn't dissolve properly, it will form large clumps at the bottom of the bucket that are almost impossible to get to dissolve.
Thank you for the soda ash recipe 👍🏻 I appreciate that you share your knowledge & am amazed at the artistry of each & every shirt.
You're welcome! 🙂

Very nice! Colors didn't wander much, which I have a hard time with. Do you think thickening the plain water would help keep the coloed dye from creeping? Or would that be an unnecessary step? Love your videos!
Thank you, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! Yes, you can always used some plain thickened water to help keep the dye from invading the white space.
You rinse in cold water - where I live there isn’t cold water coming from the tap right now so how might I make it work?
It gets that way here too during the hot part of the summer. I'm not really sure of a solution for you. As long as the water isn't hot and is just barely warm I think you would be OK. Just make sure you rinse the white areas first really well.
Instead of a pH neutral soap, wouldn't you want to add something very lightly acidic to keep the dye from bonding when you do the soak?
If almost all the soda ash has been rinsed from the shirt, using the pH neutral soap works really well. Fiber reactive dyes can actually be used with an acid like vinegar instead of a base like soda ash to dye silk or wool.
How is there a hole in the splatter guard? Did you cut that or am I just missing something?
No, I actually bought it that way. It is a Nordic Ware brand cover.
Adding water to the white areas could also dilute the soda ash in those areas.
Yes, it absolutely does, which helps keep the dye from bonding to those areas as well. I forgot to mention that in the video. 🙂
Very nice! 😊
Hot or cold rinse, my shirts always immediately get dyed by the runoff water. 😥
Are you using fiber reactive dyes?
No matter what I do, my dye migrates onto the white parts of my shirt. Help. I even use Rit’s solution for setting the dye.
I haven't ever tried Rit dye, so I'm not sure how it differs from the fiber reactive dye that I use. Adding plain water in between the colors really helps because it fills the fibers up and makes them less likely to absorb or wick up the dye. 🙂
Yesterday I made a tie dye shirt that was red white and blue for the 4th of July but for some reason when the red dried it turned pink I don't know why can you help me with this also my spiral is not as defined as yours I don't know what I'm doing wrong? Maybe it's because I wet the shirt first. I've only been doing this for about 4 days now!
What red color did you use on your shirt? Also, do you use any kind of a tool to start your spiral?
To get a defined center spiral I tie dye the shirt when it is damp. Damp fabric is easier for me to manipulate, and it holds the folds better. I use either a fork or a pair of locking tweezers to start my spiral. I also like to use a microwave splatter guard to put over the locking tweezers while I spiral the shirt. The splatter guard helps keep the folds close to the same height. I spiral the shirt with the front down which will make the folds on the front of the shirt cleaner. Also, when I apply dye to the shirt I don't add too much dye in center of the spiral. Too much dye in that area makes the center less defined and can muddy the colors. Then I put my dyed shirts in plastic containers that have racks in the bottom. The rack will allow the excess dye to drain away from the shirt, and putting it in a container with a lid will help keep the dye from drying out. Once the dye dries out, it will quit reacting and bonding with the fabric. If it dries out after 24-48 hours, it won't matter much. However, if it dries out too soon, the colors may not be as vibrant.
@@FunEndeavors no I don't use a tool I just use my hand I was looking for one of those hemostat scissors because I see a lot of people use that to make a spiral but I couldn't find any it just says red tie-dye paint I buy it at Walmart for like I think it's $199 a bottle It's I clear bottle with a cap of course inside is a little bit of paint at the bottom and it says to add water to the top and shake it. Also I found the first tie-dye that I made in a swirl pattern I tied the shirt with rubber bands and it didn't look very good it had like a lot of just patches of color that didn't really resemble a swirl but the last one I did I didn't tie it up with the rubber bands and it looked a lot better but it still didn't look as good as yours. I guess what I need is more practice.
@@sandrabrantley38 Hemostats work well too, but they can sometimes rip a hole in the shirt if you aren't cautious with them when you put them on the shirt or take them off of the shirt. The dye that you are using is probably a more diluted version and that's why it turned out more pink. You might try adding less water to the bottle when you mix it to get a more concentrated red.
@@FunEndeavorsMy son told me next time try to add some black to the red to make the red more darker but thank you I will try what you suggested
A V-neck?
Yes, it was a V-neck shirt. 🙂
Why do you put the shirt inside out?
I do that to help with some of the speckling that can happen if all of the dye doesn't dissolve. I have a blog post going into further detail if you'd like to know more. Here is a link to it: www.funendeavors.com/tie-dye-blog/otorauggpvlo2jzw4v8lj8skcmcpts
