Not as dramatic as the Shabori style of dyeing I posted yesterday . . . .but much faster results . . . .
I used a few safety pins (3-4) and twisted and rubber banded it all much like tie dyeing method. . .
large pot ,not much water and not much stirring . . .
just threw in the colour and had fun . . . .I found I had to re tie and redye several times to get all the white areas dyed . . .. Ill keep trying this idea . . .maybe add spot dyeing techniques next time?
Sorry I didnt keep any formulas so cant write them up here today . . ..

It was so wonderful to see the pieces in real life. And to see Justine's Three Bear Rug! I look forward to the next post about it.
