How has the dye job held up a year later?
Forgot all about this and thought the shirt in WDYWT was your first go at this
Held up well! Pic isn't great but after a bunch of washes it came to to a blush pink and the whites are pulling through more. If i remember right, I didn't really tie it in a particular way, just soaked it, so patterning is just the natural folds.
Another really simple one. I think this one turned out really interesting. Inspiration from junya watanabe and south 2 west 8
Tut?
This thread is everything I was searching for for so long. Thank you for sharing all this knowledge @op
Thinking about making these by dying some blue hickory stripe stan rays.
Has anybody in here ever dyed pants before?
Did you end up going through with this?
Tut?
Not really much to it tbh. Just cut the sleeves and the collar off of a flannel and use the material to make pockets. any specific areas that you need help with?
The bag
Is that all just rug tassels?
Exactly, It was a project I did with a friend never got around to fully finishing it because of work and travel.
Bunch of prototypes i made last year, some details you can't see from this pic that are on the back or inside. Can't believe I gave up. Gotta get back to it.
took me a little longer than a year but I'm back with another

How can I split the hem of my jeans in a natural looking way? If I just take scissors to them I feel like they’ll terrible. I got some 505 Levi’s and I just want them to hit my shoe a little better

Like put a side slit on them? pretty sure there’s tutorials on YouTube and it shouldn’t be too hard. Would practice on scrap fabric or some other pants first
Forgot to write what the pics are lol
I patched up my Julius cargos by adding another layer of fabric and hand embroidering a Korean idiom in Chinese characters along with a trigram from the Korean flag that stands for Earth/Vitality
The idiom is 대기만성(大器晩成) which basically means great talent/success takes time to develop
