I finished my first attempt at dyeing a jacket. I spent a lot of money and didn't get what I wanted but I did learn some things.
The black dye didn't get into all of the canvas evenly. Possibly because it was pretty scrunched into the 3 gallon pot.
If I did this again the dye bath would be way bigger.
As is the canvas is probably acceptable as a black with fades.
It barely got into the stitching at all. I don't know if this is because stitching is like that generally or because it's a synthetic.
I don't really like the yellow contrast.
The selvage detail on the front pocket barely picked up any dye.

Do you ever dye your clothes, /fa/? I've got something soaking in dye right now, first time I have tried this.
It looks like the fabric is absolutely fine but the stitching isn't taking the dye. It didn't occur to me that the thread might be a synthetic and need a synthetic dye.
Or possibly the threads are natural and they just don't readily take the dye?
