| I tie dyed 2 babygros in a nice turquoise blue for C when she was little and she looked awesome in em. So Awen suits them too so I got 6 more and a pack of intense violet dye and some elastic bands
Shes now got 6 gorge new babygros, one with little circles all over it, 2 with swirls, one with large circles, 2 with random patterning. I so cant wait to see her in them |

| You need some plain babygros, sme dye and some elastic bands or string. I used dylon-you add it to 6l warm water with 250g salt.
If you google theres diff ways of tying it depending on the effect you wantand put the elastic bands on to hold it and cut off the dye getting into the folds. You put it in the dye but dont stir it just leave it to absorb then take it out and rinse in cold water to get the excess dye out.
Wash it seperately for a wash or two
Th two effects i like best its the small circles which you can do eithe pinching fabic and tieing the little lumps or even nicer is using a marble or pebblt to create the shape and the diagonal stripes where you fold the gro in half then make pleated folds diaginally across the gro and secure with bands |
