Type 2 Dyeing Recipes

You can use the following recipes to turn clothes that are either a tint, a shade or a hue into the perfect Type 2 tone.

Soft, subtle, and blended are words to describe the look you want to achieve with the finished article that is being dyed.The under tones of your clothing should be gray, rosy, dusty, or taupe. Remember Type 2 Tones are cool and muted.

If the garment is too pure in color, you can tone it down by dipping it in the color’s opposite. For example, if it were pure red, you could dip it in green. The existing color of the garment will affect the final outcome. If a garment is too bright in color you can tone it down by dipping it in a Pearl Grey dye bath for as long as it needs to subdue the color.
