When weaving we make a chain when taking of pegs or it can be a mess. Put your ties then chain that for ease of moving it without tangle. When weaving we deal with massively long yardage. Have to chain it.

I used your technique and dyed some yarn with kool aid in my crock pot. Turned out great. I want to dye another skein but want to make the colour black. I’ve mixed some colours but it doesnt turn a true black. Do you have any suggestions on how I would get a dark black with kool aid? Thank you so much

Such a helpful guide! I’m so excited to dye yarn now!

which dye must i use personal protective clothing

Thank you so much. It was a great help

Hi!! thank you for the video! Are the stock solutions comprised of dye & water? or what is the liquid the dye is mixed with?

I am wanting to get started dying yarn and I have some questions about safety. For example if you mix up the power dye into liquid and use that for dying. All of the utensils that come into contact with the dye (can those be washed? What about after dying the yarn the water that remains(hopefully all the dye is used up) is it safe to dump this water in the sink?

Great little tutorial for a noob like me! thanks! :)

Very well demonstrated!! Thank you!

I love your down to earth explanations to make dyeing solutions make sense

I have commercial dyes to use this weekend

I'm diving into dyeing we shall see how it turns out

Good job, Rebecca. Always good to watch you work. Blessings.

I just love your videos! I tried dyeing my own handspun yarn like this video but used 3 food coloring colors (teal, royal blue, and forest green). It came out quite a bit different from yours with the inside being almost as dark as the outside, the top being quite a bit lighter and getting some dark purple areas on the bottom(?). Wish I could add a picture! Also, I would 100% support you trying to learn to spin your own yarn so that you would also get into dyeing wool roving XD You just have the best dyeing videos and I'd love to see you dye wool!

Hi I’m new to jacquard dyes and I’m trying to dye a silk play scarf for my 15 month old! I’m really confused I bought the dyes but how much water do I mix with it? Do you have a video of how to use the stock solution? It’s only a small 90x90cm iv seen people do them in huge tubs but it just seems a waste? Does it matter how big the tub is or how much water you use to how the colour is?

¡Espero que traduzcas este mensaje! te tengo una pregunta ¿esta tinta que hiciste en el tutorial se puede utilizar en una pluma fuente? eso te lo pregunto porque desgraciadamente en mi país no venden tinta para la pluma, 2 de mis hermanos y yo utilizamos pluma estilografica y lo que desamos es hacer la tinta nosotros mismos. Por eso la pregunta gracias por leer esto, y gracias por el tutorial.

How did you get such a long skein of yarn? Do you have a very large bobbin? or, did you tie each full bobbin together? thanks

Wow

How could I do this technique using cotton yarn with fiber reactive dye?

I am trying this today once my slow cooker arrives in mail. Super excited! This is so helpful!!!!

Hi can you show how to dye 3 color yarn?

Please. How to make your own self striping planned color pooling yarn with color changes every 6 - 12 inches?! 😢😪😔🤢

Love it.

How safe is the steam while cooking the dye pot? Honestly, that's another part of my fear that is keeping me from beginning using acid dye. I'm thinking of cooking outdoors for this reason. Do you know of any allergy warnings in regard to the Jacquard acid dyes? Additionally, do you know if cooler vs warmer weather will effect cooking outdoors?

Thank you for sharing this information! Excellent video!!! ⚓️💙

Thank you this is awesome!

I understand so much more now, thank you!!🤓🥰

Fabulous video. Thank you 😊💓

Can i brush this solution on the fabric?

Hi Rebecca, I’m a beginner yarn dyer. And how do you measure out the stock solution when you go to dye yarn? For instance I have recipe where I’m using 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 tsp of powder dye to dilute in water to pour into my dye pot. How would I utilize dye stock in such small measurements?

Is anyone other than me having a hard time getting this blue to stop bleeding? I have rinsed and rinsed and still bleeding. I have even let it sit in rinse water over night and still bleeding. So I thought I must have done something wrong. I had the exact same yarn from the same supplier so I tried again. Still the same problem. I have now put all 4 skeins back in a pot with some citric acid. Hope this works.

How long do dye stocks last?

Hello! I dyed my first box today after practicing yesterday with the triangle exercise. I wanted a deep, saturated blue, so made a 1% DOS solution with a mix of Jacquard Gunmetal, Turquoise & a bit of Jet black . I dyed 100 GM of SW Sport Merino yarn that was in my box & followed the instructions otherwise. The water was 99.9% clear at the end, but I’m worried - I have slight bleeding not sure if it’s enough to be concerned about. I did a rinse/wool wash/rinse.

The chartreuse blows my mind! In the jar it looks so golden, and when wet it turns so green! This is sorcery.

So Rebecca mentioned that to get a more even color you should add the yarn to a cold dye bath w/o acid then heat it. At what point during the process should you add the acid? I'm looking to do a very even solid. Thanks to anyone who can answer!

Beautiful colors. Easy technique.

I really like this dye technique.Iwill be using this. Thanks.

Will a corona virus era face mask work as protection?

Hi Rebecca. Love this segment. Near the end you showed a brownish gradient. The blue you specified the colours but I’m interested in the colours you used for the other gradient. Could you please tell me what colours were used? Thank you

The zip ties listed on your site are no longer available for now, what would you recommend as a replacement?

This is beautiful and I look forward to duplicating it today! I have a young friend just beginning her fiber journey and it will be a gift for her. Again, thank you so very much for sharing! I will too and direct folks here! 🧶💙✨🧶💙✨🧶💙✨🌀🌀🌀🌀🌀🌀

Thank you SO much for showing the “magic” behind dying. As a fiber artist, local yarn shop teacher and podcaster I’ve always been intrigued by the process but a bit intermediated by all the many processes. Because of Chem Knits passionate videos I’m jumped in myself and made my first purchase of ten skeins of your bare DK. I’m super excited to share my experiences on my own channel next week. Again, thank you SO much for the accessibility. That’s always been my own philosophy as well. 🧶💓🧶

Awesome job Rebecca!!

Approximately what temperature should the water be at for dyeing? Thank you
