Remember this Dye Magic shirt? I bought it at a thrift store for a song because of a pen ink stain on the front. After a date with Imperial Purple Procion MX dye, you don't notice it.
Because the snow/ice storm cancelled my original plans for this weekend, I tried snow dyeing at home instead. I'll show the in-progress photos later. Let's now just admire the end result.
I sprinkled a teaspoon each of Midnight Blue and Strong Navy dye powder on the soda ash-soaked shirt, ice, and snow layer cake. One or both of the colors separated into their component colors.
I also see flashes of fuchsia dye that did not thoroughly dissolve.
I see more snow/ice dyeing in my future. I just have to display enough discipline to use one color at a time until I understand how the colors behave with this method.
