Davie, question…..when you are dying the Scanfil darning wool yarn that amazing Sunburst color, do you recommend washing it with liquid soap as well as adding some directly to the dye bath to enhance the dye absorption, and do you bring the dye bath up to boiling or dye cold with wool ? Leonard 👍🎣👍
@DavieMcPhail
2 жыл бұрын
Hi Leonard, No I just put the yarn straight into the pot of dye which will be close to boiling as it will soak up the dye really quick as there's nothing in the yarn to stop it..I just watch for the colour I want and when I am happy I remove it and run the yarn into cold water...If the colour is not strong enough I will put it back in the dye but 99% of the time it's ok..

Hi Davie, Thank you for the excellent videos regarding the dyeing of feathers.I have also been keenly dyeing my own materials for a while now, with some success. I have recently purchased AK Best's book - Dyeing and Bleaching Natural Fly Tying Materials, and I noticed that he suggests adding the vinegar to the dye bath at the start of the process prior to adding the material.My understanding was that the vinegar acts as a setting agent so that the materials are colourfast, however in your video's you add the vinegar add the end of the dyeing process once the material has acquired the desired colour.My question is this;Does the addition of the vinegar halt the colour being taken up into the material, if so why would he add it at the beginning ?or is the time at which the vinegar is added irrelevant, as it merely acts to set the dye ?Hope I have put this across clearly. Best wishes and thanks again for the dyeing videos. There is not too much stuff out there on the internet about dyeing so it was greatly appreciated.Also, do you plan to do any videos on bleaching/colour removal ?RegardsLindsay

Hi Lindsay, I'm sorry about the delay in getting back to you...I've tried many different ways of dyeing materials and I have added the vinegar in before and after but found them to be much the same but I always like to allow the dye to soak through first then add the vinegar especially with dense fur and hen like feathers..I have also used other agents to set the dye but you have to watch what you are doing but thats another story...AK Best's book is a very good one and I would certainly use this as a guide though most of what I have learnt is simply by trial and error over many years, the other thing you have to watch out for is that dyes do change over time so you have to adapt to suit them..I hope this helps you in some way...

Nothing more than water and vinager? Someone told me he puts a dab of dishsoap also. What are your thoughts on that?

Davie, If I'm going to dye whole capes or hairs and furs on the skin would you lay them out on some kitchen roll and allow them to dry naturally or just get in about them with the wife's hairdryer and hope she doesn't kill me when she finds out? tight lines bud, Jim.

Hey Davie, Just me again, I got some blood marabou feathers, and as you said, the dye is getting all over my hands! Is it too late to rinse them and let them dry? I don't want to ruin them, but if I get as angry about my black fingers, that I couldn't get off for awhile, meaning no tying, I am apt to throw them out. Problem is, I have to buy them again and might buy the same problem. Thanks Sean

Hey Davie would this work well for cream Metz #2 hackle?
@DavieMcPhail

Hi Nicholas, It would be ideal as the natural cream colour will help to give you a warmer sunburst colour, I do this a lot when dying any materials...If you dye a natural grey or dun yellow you will get a lovely olive and a light or dark ginger the same colour you'll get a golden olive both vey useful colours, so when your buying capes think of this as I always do.... All the very best Davie
