Description

This class is to dye for! Learn fun tie-dye techniques and walk away with two colorful shirts! Join instructor Linore Huss for an hour and a half long session where you'll learn proper dye techniques, fun folds, and leave with two completed tie-dye shirts! We'll learn to make patterns such as a basic swirl, polka dots (bulls-eyes), lines, and more! Students will also receive a page of instructions for mixing their own dye and soda ash mixture, and for rinsing/washing their shirts at home once they have set. Please bring two t-shirts with you! T-shirts that are 100% cotton will give you the best results. Other shirts may leave you with dulled colors (Ben Franklin's is a great place to get them). It is best to wash them first, as chemicals they were stored in can also affect the tie-dyeing process. The Inventor Center is the new makerspace opening in Kingsport March of 2019.
