St. Patty's Day Tie-Dye Socks

Step 2:

- Wrap 8 rubber bands horizontally around each sock, spacing them about 1 ¼” apart. (The tighter the bands are wrapped, the more white area there will be.)

- Dip socks in water; squeeze out excess. Set aside.

Step 3:

- Wearing rubber gloves, measure and mix 2 Tablespoons Kelly Green dye with 2 cups very hot water (140°); stir well. Note: If water is not hot enough, heat water in the microwave or tea kettle.

-Immerse socks in dye solution and let soak for 5 – 10 minutes, depending upon the desired color.

Step 4:

-Remove socks and rinse in cool water. Remove rubber bands and continue rinsing until water runs clear. Then wash with warm water and detergent; rinse and dry.
