For my popular ‘crinkle’ scarves I use a direct application of Fiber Reactive Dyes to create blending colourful stripes. ******IMPORTANT NOTES:******** ****For info on how to mix the dyes see this video: https://youtu.be/mYPo5aFNLNQ ****Scarves have to set, covered in plastic to keep them damp, for at least 6 hours - usually I leave them overnight before rinsing. ***** Ideally for this you should use 5mm silk - pongee or habotai as it's fine enough to dye through the 8 layers. I leave the scarves crinkly for a more casual look. The colour combinations are endless! https://www.susancorbintextiles.etsy.com @susancorbintextiles on Instagram https://www.facebook.com/freespiritsilk
