Posts: 85Hi all! I've just finished dying a batch of Sassy fabrics (and the colours came out beautifully) but either the wetness or process has made the fur quite stiff and kinda prickly. Any ideas or tips for how to soften it up again?
I used RIT powder dyes and simmered the fabric in hot water as Steph suggested. Drip-dried them though instead of putting them in the dryer.
I don't simmer the fabric in Rit dye..it's just a case of dunking till I get to the colour....then a good rinse..and if it's stiff I might add some fabric softener to the rinse..then tumble on a low heat...
