Tie dye t-shirts green onto pink

Here I am creating a subtle tie dye pattern on t-shirts that have already been dyed shades of pink. I had some green powder left and decided to see what the effect would be.

The t shirts were folded and tied with string

I used half a packet of dye but still added the required amount of salt as that salt helps the fabric pores open up so that the dye can bond to the fabric.

I made up the dye bath, in a small true outside in the garden

The t shirts were added and left in the bath for a few minutes

I removed them after 5 mins

I didn't want to colour them green but just add a tint, so then 

Placed them in another trug

Adding water to wash off excess dye

Then they were ready to be taken out and squeezed

You can see how the folds and tied areas took up a different amount of dye, creating the look

Here are the two t shirts drip drying before washing.

If I had kept them in longer the patterning would have looked stronger but the pink would have also lost brightness.
