Beautiful!!!! *QUESTIONS* Do you not rinse this afterwards? Do you always have to wash this shirt separately to prevent it from dying the rest of your wash?
You definitely have to rinse it off under cold water and then wash it in the machine by itself or with other rinsed out tie-dyed items, on the highest level of water setting. I wouldn’t ever try to throw your normal wash in with the clothes you’re rinsing off for tie-dye, unless you’re throwing in some true-black items that are fading from their dark black color. If you put your blacks in with your tie dye it should darken again (especially if you’re using dark blues or purples and reds together)
what color do you use on the back turquoise side? just a darker blue? i see the pink and purple but lost you when you did the color on the back side on the blue. thanks!
so beautiful ... I will check out your other videos ... is there some way you can come closer in future to the folding/tying process? some of it was mostly out of range and you can see an empty table for 1/2 the frame and the action is scrunched up at the top hard to see ... just feedback for a very inspiring use of tulip dyes, which I have but was shy to use because it says best used in 45 minutes, dye weakens. Do you find this to be so? Is the dye colorfast? Do you know if I can use these dyes on wool yarn? Thanks for your generous sharing.
This design works really well with reactive dyes but the water-based markers run when you saturated it. You'd have to try to draw it on after it dries a little or use permanent markers (which would show on the final product)
If you start with a dry shirt, you will get crisper edges. If you start with a damp shirt, the dye will run more, which you might want... it's great for if you want to blend colours to make a rainbow, for instant. It's fun to play around and experiment.
Amazing! Just so simple but yet a unique way to young yang!! Did you get your hot pink from fushia? I'm having troubles getting a pink thats not too reddish!
Hello! I'm from Brazil and I don't find these paints here. Your works are wonderful! Can you give me the name of the paints and where to buy? Thank you!
Yes, Yin and Yan represents duality, but it is more than just the word. It represents the idea that one thing cannot exist without its seeming opposite. Yin is Yan and Yan is Yin.
Yes love, it boasts me a bit the woman didn't understand it completely. It is you and I to make that choice of yin/yang to be the positives. Teacher /Critical? 🌿 Peace
Yin yang easiest said, negative/positive. You make that choice. In life there is a opposite for every thing. Yin yang......positive is happier and easier in my life, I choose. 🌿 Peace
Yin and Yang don't mean good and bad, they symbolize energy and calmness, light and shadow, hot and cold, man and woman. In Daoism, balance of all things is important and understanding that complimentary things have their connections. Yin and Yang represent duality and neither are good nor bad.
All the comments about what yin yang symbol means are kind of condescending and completely redundant. Considering the number of eastern philosophy based beliefs that have assigned a meaning to it there really is no written in stone definition anymore. It can means what you think it does. The best definition for anything is one you don't have to explain. You said it meant "duality". An intellectually competent person could see where you got that from if all you did was look at the image. I grew up with a Buddhist father who defined it for me as balance. None of the dao tao foo foo crap. The comments are made by people who feel powerless in some part of their lives so they unnecessarily attack by nitpicking at others till they feel superior. If they really understood any philosophy behind it they wouldn't have lectured you about it. Just see them for what they are. Have a good day
