how to tie-dye cresting waves
I want to make a shirt that looks like there are waves cresting on
it. Could you tell me how to twist the shirt to make it look like this? There was some discussion on this very question on the Dye Forum a couple of years ago. Take a look at the following page: "cresting wave" tie-dye design [Be sure to scroll down to the examples pictured near the bottom] In general, the cresting wave design is created by combining two or more spirals. Tie-dyeing a spiral is achieved by placing a fork or a clothespin in the middle of a piece of fabric and turning it; combining two or more such spirals is an interesting challenge for those who have mastered more basic tie-dyeing folds. For more basic instructions in simpler spirals, see the following two pages: "FAQ: How do you tie-dye a spiral pattern?" "Spiral Tutorial" in the Tie Dye Wiki If you would like to discuss folding these and other tie-dye designs with other tie-dyers, consider joining the Dye Forum. (Please help support this web site. Thank you.) Posted: Tuesday - June 08, 2010 at 10:00 AM
