Not that I'm proud of it or anything........
It's even more vibrant IRL - the green is very very vibrant, and the color distinction quite crisp.
I soaked the tied shirt in soda-ash (it was folded in half lengthwise, and spiralled toward the fold starting near the fold at belly-button level) and then let it dry completely before putting the dye on - I wanted near-total color saturation. I had the color scheme planned out, but really had no clue where the colors would end up on the shirt, yk? And I ended up with these gorgeous encircling bands of blue!
The shirt itself is a Bolivian co-op shirt from Dharma - they're selling them VERY cheap so they can move them fast to provide work for the co-op.....in case any of you wanted to try it yourself
