While our staff will provide instruction on basic tie-dye techniques, it’s always best to come in with a plan of what you’d like to make. We will provide rubber bands, the dyes listed below set up at separate stations, along with a space to prep your cotton shirt.

Your shirt must be 100% cotton for maximum adherence to the dye.

Below, we’ve provided some basic design videos you can draw inspiration from, but feel free to research additional techniques and if you want to try something more advanced, feel free to try it, but know our staff are not professionals and are not responsible for any results from any experimentation. Also, please note that if your technique requires any resources beyond the rubber bands we will provide, you will need to bring whatever supplies you require.

Finally, it takes time for dyes to fully adhere to the cotton fibers in your shirt so while we will provide compostable bags for you to take your project home, it will be up to you to find a safe place to allow your shirt to soak. 24 hours should be sufficient, but the longer you allow the shirt to sit with the dye, the better the dyes will stick to the fabric, allowing for a brighter, finished product that will last longer after multiple washes.

We will provide instructions to wash your shirt when you feel it’s ready so you can enjoy it around town or at the crag!
