Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Make one great big knot with the sheet or big bundle!. Try to center the knot or bundle!. Then make some more knots on each corner!. Then tie off some twisted puckers with string or rubberbands!. Then dip into the colors!. Or do a different color for each bundle!.

I used to tyedye in the early 70's!. It's lotsa fun!

make sure your fabric is 100% cotton (no poly blends)!. Run fabric through washer/dryer to make sure there isn't any soap residue as well as shrink proof!.

using extremely strong rubber bands works better than tying because it ensures that the knots won't come apart during the soaking process!.

It's messy - remember that dye dyes! :) Garage or backyard is highly recommended!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
