Here's another snapshot from my on-line family album.
It's a thermal- weave long- sleeved and long-legged
romper, with a rainbow starting with scarlet and proceeding through the
usual rainbow colors in the usual rainbow order. There is no undyed material
left at all. The effect is brilliant in color and quite striking.
Too bad the typical After The Stork
quality caused it to need sewing repairs after just a couple of wearings. (When
will blank clothing suppliers start carrying
snap-crotch clothes for the larger toddlers who wear sizes 3T and 4T before
they turn two?)
I laid the pre-soaked garment flat on a table whose top is composed
of a 1/4 inch wire grid, then carefully applied the dyes in diagonal
stripes directly from the squirt bottles. (See How to Dye
for more details.)
