  Step 1

  soke the pants (or other thing) in water

• 

  Step 2

  lay pants flat on floor. take a dowel or pole of sorts (i used curtain rod) and place it in center of pants. turn the dowel until the pants are a tight swirl

• 

  Step 3

  tie the bundel with yarn,string, or elastics. make sure it's secure

• 

  Step 4

  let bundel soke in soda ash for 20-30 minutes

• 

  Step 5

  put the colours dye on in any pattern you want.

  i did the swirly pattern. to do that you split the bundle into 3 parts (in your mind) and put the colours on. do both sides.

  make sure to get the dye in the folds.

  i forgot to do that so there's a lot of white left.

  Step 6

  wrap in plastic-wrap and put in plastic bag. let sit for 24hr or more.

• 

  Step 7

  rinse in warm water until it runs pretty clear. then put in washing machine with old towels

• 

  Step 8

  now you have spiffy new pants. go frolick and be a crazy child
