Welcome!

Our All-Purpose and DyeMore shades are only the

beginning. This guide features 500+ formulas that we

have developed so that you can mix our dyes to create

so many more colors.

The first few pages of this guide highlight how to use

and scale our formulas. Each page after that features a

complete palette of shades in each color group.

Dye Method

• Use the sink or bucket method for general projects.

• Use the stovetop method if you are trying to achieve as bold of a color as possible or working with Rit DyeMore Synthetic Fiber Dye.

• Use the washing machine method if you are dyeing large items.

Powder or Liquid Dye

All of our formulas are listed with liquid dye measurements. If you are using powder dye, refer to our conversion chart on page 5.

Amount of Dye and Water

All of our formulas are based on dyeing one pound of fabric with three gallons of water. Our guidance on how to scale our formulas is on page 6.

Tips for Dyeing

Dye Type

Use Rit All-Purpose Dye if you are working with cotton, linen, silk, wool, rayon, ramie or nylon.

Use Rit DyeMore Synthetic Fiber Dye if you are working with fabric that contains more than 35% polyester, acrylic or acetate.

Color

The colors shown in this guide are based on the following standards:

• Rit All-Purpose Dye: White 100% cotton dyed at 140° F for 30 minutes

• Rit DyeMore Synthetic Fiber Dye: White 100% polyester dyed at 200° F for 30 minutes

The final color of your project may be lighter or darker depending on the fabric content, temperature and time in dyebath. (See Test Color below). If the fabric you are working with (a) has an existing color and (b) is cotton, linen, wool, ramie, rayon, some silks or blends containing these fabrics, you can remove or reduce its color prior to dyeing with Rit Color Remover. Unfortunately, Rit Color Remover will most likely not work on synthetic fabrics.

Tip: The sink or bucket and stovetop methods are the best for mixing colors, letting you easily tweak dye amounts to get just the right color.

Tips for Dyeing

Test Color

We strongly recommend testing the color of your dyebath before dyeing.

• If you are using Rit All-Purpose Dye, the most realistic test would be to use a scrap piece of fabric from the garment you are dyeing. However, you can also test color by dipping a paper towel into the dyebath.

• If you are using Rit DyeMore Synthetic Fiber Dye, we recommend first heating up the dyebath on your stove to almost boiling. The most realistic test would be to use a scrap piece of fabric from the garment you are dyeing and leave it in the dyebath for 5 minutes. If a scrap piece of fabric isn’t available, then use a fabric swatch that has a similar fiber makeup as the garment (if available). Unfortunately, using a paper towel to test color will not give you a close representation of how the color will appear on your synthetic fabric. It is worth a try if you do not have a swatch available, but please keep in mind that it won’t provide you with an exact match for color.

If the color is too light, add more dye; if the color is too dark, add more water. If more dye is needed, add dye in increments of 1/4 to 1 teaspoon, depending upon the recipe or amount of

fabric being dyed. If the color is too dark, add hot water in 1 to 2 cup increments, depending upon the size of the dyebath and the amount of fabric being dyed.

Enhance Color and Reduce Bleeding

We strongly recommend using Rit ColorStay Dye Fixative immediately after dyeing to reduce bleeding and enhance the color of your dye project. Works on cotton, linen, rayon, ramie and blends containing these fabrics.
