This two-color Tie-Dye was created with RIT Golden Yellow and RIT Fuchsia. The twist technique gives subtle color contrasts.

What You'll Need:

1. Basic Supplies
2. 100% cotton T-shirt or other article to dye
3. 2 colors of RIT Dye, either powder or liquid. You'll need
   1 package powder dye or 1/2 bottle liquid dye for each color
4. Rubber bands, string, or 2-inch wide strips of cloth for tying

Instructions:


1. Starting with one corner, twist the entire shirt into a rope, then continue twisting until it curls. Tie the ends together with rubber bands or string.
   
2. Before starting to dye, put on rubber gloves and prepare all dyebaths. For each color, dissolve 1 package RIT powder dye or
   1/2 cup RIT liquid dye in about 2 gallons very hot water. For dark or bright colors, prepare each dyebath in a 12-quart stainless steel pot, then heat on stovetop to a temperature just below simmering.
   
   
3. Starting with the lightest color, immerse the shirt in the dyebath for 4 to 10 minutes, stirring constantly.
   Remove shirt from dyebath and rinse under cool running water until water runs clear. Release ties and continue rinsing until water runs clear.
   
   
4. Re-twist and tie as above, tucking some of the colored sections into the middle (or twist from a different corner). Dye with next darker color(s).
   
   
5. Remove shirt from dyebath and rinse under cool running water until water runs clear. Release ties and rinse until water runs clear. Wash the T-shirt in warm water using a small amount of mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly in cool water. Gently squeeze out excess water by rolling shirt in a clean old towel.
   
   
6. Machine or hang to dry.
