    Wow! What beautiful colors!
    I am a silk painter and I use commercial dyes (DuPont Silk Dyes). I watch videos where they use Fiber Reactive Dyes in powder form on cotton wearables to show the color splits and they were GORGEOUS! This reminds me of that. I'm amazed that these are food coloring! I would love it if I could get some of these splits, breaks and/or strikes with my liquid dyes.
    Thanks for showing us some cool stuff!

    The blue and teal looked so similar saturation-wise that the difference in the overdyed yarn amazed me! I really like the purplish color of the same ends dipped first, but the contrast of the ends on the flipped skein could give some really amazing results when worked up.

      The teal breaking is so incredibly subtle that I wondered if I made a mistake picking that for this project. I was afraid I wouldn't see a lot of difference between the two, and BOY was I surprised!!

  • @IceWeirdo
    @IceWeirdo Před 3 lety

    Also, on the point of why you might have differences between mixing the 2 colours together before the dip or doing 2 dip-dyes : between the 2 colours, you have 3 molecules (maybe I didn't listen closely enough and it's 4, I think it is 4 now), so if you have all 3 at the same time, red has a faster rate than the yellows. Whilst when you had only the teal, the yellow was the fastest so it had priority. Am I making sense?

    • @ChemKnitsTutorials
      @ChemKnitsTutorials  Před 3 lety

      Well the bigger difference between having the Teal+Copper dip dyed together and then a Teal dip vs copper dip is that as the colors break, if I'm dipping a different rates the colors can bind to different places than if they were all in the dyepot together.
      It is easier to think about this with two colors, say Blue & Pink. If I were to dip dye in blue and then dip dye in pink, I may still have something that looks very similar to a broken violet, but depending on how fast or slow I dip you may see the colors shift in a different way. Maybe this is one I should do - a hand mixed violet versus blue and then pink.

  • @cindypierce6269
    @cindypierce6269 Před 3 lety +1

    I am curious would it make any difference if you changed the order and dipped in the copper first?🧐

    • @ChemKnitsTutorials
      @ChemKnitsTutorials  Před 3 lety

      It may have made a difference... but it would have been harder for me to figure out how fast to dip the teal because that is so subtle.

  • @MOLLIMEDIA
    @MOLLIMEDIA Před 3 lety

    This is beautiful yarn. I would love to see how you could get the same results, but using commercial dyes. They give you predictable results, but behave differently.

    • @ChemKnitsTutorials
      @ChemKnitsTutorials  Před 3 lety

      I don't have as much luck with many commercial dyes when I dip dye to break the colors. At least not premixed colors... I think if you add radioactive or fluorescent fuchsia to just about any other color and then you may see some breaking. ;)P

    Dose of solution...
    I got 100ml of 1% stock. I break them half with water. 50/50. That is 0,5%? And when I break that again 50/50 how much is it? 0,25 or 0,025%?

    • @ChemKnitsTutorials
      @ChemKnitsTutorials  Před 2 lety

      If you add 100 mL water to your 100 mL 1% stock, you will have a 0.5% stock (0.5 g dye / 100 mL). If you add 200 mL of water to the 200 mL 0.5% stock you will have a 0.25% stock (0.25 g dye / 100 mL) So yes.

      Some greens break - depending on what is mixed in them. I believe I've dip dyed almost every icing color in various livestreams over the years. If the green has red on the label then we likely got fun breaking.

    You didn’t explain what breaking dye means

    • @ChemKnitsTutorials
      @ChemKnitsTutorials  Před rokem

      I'm so sorry about that! Color breaking is when a color mixture splits into the different colors of that mixture while dyeing. (Eg. a purple splitting into pinks and blues.) This happens because the different dyes can bind to yarn at different rates, where one binds faster than the others so one spreads out more. it's a lot of fun to play with.
