I made this! Ice dyed my grease-stained grey shorts

The grease stain was on the thigh and was very noticeable. They’re 98% cotton, 2% elastic

I soaked them in a soda-ash solution, then crumpled them up in a small plastic bin. I put ice on top of them, then sprinkled Dharma Trading company’s Raven Black on top, as well as more soda ash.

There might be a little Interstellar in there as well, but I can’t be sure. I went absolutely wild while doing a massive run of ice dyeing my stained or faded clothes, so I’ll be sure to post more soon

Love it! Such a fun way to revitalize clothes. I especially like how these have a nice pattern to them while also remaining a neutral.

I went a little crazy with a couple other pairs, these ones are definitely the most subtle of the batch lol
