Discover the Art of Dash Dyeing
Simple, Color-Fast and Stunning Results
Dash Dyeing with MORE ∞ JOY is an innovative and straightforward way to infuse your fabric with vibrant colors. Our Dash Dyeing technique uses a unique mix of dye pigment and activator, allowing you to dash color directly onto your damp fabric—no extra mess, no complicated steps.
Step by Step Guide
Dashed Dharma
Mix your Dharma Trading Co. dye with equal parts Baking Soda Ash, which activates the powdered pigment and allows you to place it directly on the fabric.
Once you’ve dashed your colors, let the fabric sit for four hours. During this time, the dye will set into the fibers, locking in the vivid hues. There’s no need for excessive waiting or additional chemicals; our special dye blend does all the work.
Tip: Place in a pressure cooker to speed things up! Temperatures required for immediate results are PSI 5.
After four hours, rinse your fabric in cold water until the water runs clear. Follow up with a gentle wash in warm water with mild detergent. This step removes any excess dye and reveals the full vibrancy of your colors. Treat your newly dyed item as you would any other piece of clothing—there’s no special care required!
Tip: For your first wash, wash separately or with similar colors to prevent any minor residual bleeding.
Your fabric is now a beautiful, wearable work of art! Enjoy the comfort and vibrant joy of your dash-dyed piece, whether it’s a scarf, shawl, or any other item. Each creation is as unique as you are, embodying the essence of MORE ∞ JOY’s mission to bring color and happiness into your everyday life.
