Instructions for Dyeing LACY'S Stiff Stuff:
LACY'S Stiff Stuff can be easily dyed to match your background, your thread, or your heart's desire with RIT(tm) dyes:
Mix 1 tsp. RIT powder to 2 cups boiling water. Be careful: the dye will fizz and boil up.
Allow LACY'S to soak in the dye for 60 seconds.
Rinse in cold water and pat dry with paper towel.
Allow to air-dry.
Permanent ink markers also work well, and allow you to change background colors as needed in following your design or pattern.
