GoatandTricycle-
I’m using the Dylon machine dyes, mainly because it’s what I started with and have ended up in their colour eco-system, but they come mixed with the salt & fixing chemicals. This makes it a one-shot for convenience and consistency, plus easy to pickup locally
I’ve looked at Rit, which are (supposedly) more environmentally friendly, but haven’t actually tried them yet - less synthetic palette which looks appealing
The quantities in the Dylon tubs are pretty huge for a small kids T, so I could put together a kit for you if you let me know colours? To give you an idea, the Day Tripping T’s are 4 colours; Dark Blue, Light Blue, Yellow, Orange, with the blue and yellow mixing to make the green in the centre. It’s taken a while to learn to mix colours like a spectrum, and work together, unless you’re after an olive-sludge!

I'm still on the T-shirts! :-S
....but have come here to post news for all those waiting on the T-shirt restock; have received the printed t's (from the lovely Third Rail in Bermondsey) and have spent the afternoon doing the first part of overdyeing.
Still to wash through, press etc, but will be in touch with all those waiting a DM group for payment/delivery details. Once everything is confirmed, I'm going to try to get batches out each day. Thank you for the patience!
...Who was wearing one at Primavera?! :)
