Hi, I have a question about dyeing corduroy. I have an orange color corduroy vest that I would love to dye black. Is there anyway I can do this? If I can what kind of dye would I use? Thanks.
Dear Sophia,
Please read my article on Fabric Dyeing 101. This will tell you the basic info about dyeing. In general, if the dyeing is possible, black is hard to obtain, and you will be putting it over orange, so the best you could get is a muddy dark gray-orange, in all probability. You can also consult with Sherry at www.fabricdyeing.com for more info (read article first).
best,
Jennifer
