Time: 45 minutes
So while I had the black dye out after making the infinity
scarf, I decided that it would be really cool to have a matching skirt to wear
with it. The color the scarf turned out was perfect for fall, and I felt that I
could sacrifice one of my summer skirts to make one that was more appropriate for
post-labor day. So I decide to dye my white eyelet skirt which I acquired
(guess where) at our last clothing swap. I simply held the skirt upright into
the pot containing the black Rit Dye and let it absorb for a good 10 minutes.
The I held the bottom dyed sections under running water for a long time, until
the water began running clear. Then I submerged it into the sink filled with
water, let it soak for 10 minutes, and emptied out the water. I repeated this 2
more times then threw the skirt in the wash with hot water. When I pulled it
out it was the exact same color as my scarf with a degrade towards graphite at
the bottom. I wore the combo skirt and scarf the very next day to the office.
Love it!
