Cotton is not a protein fiber. And yup, our hair is also a protein fiber. ;^) Liz Report Spam or Abuse RE: Koolaid for Tye Dye Post By Danielle (Guest Post) (07/25/2005) Hello, We tried this and the kool aid washed out in the first washing except for a little pink. The directions are vague ~ do you iron it wet to set it or dry? The kids had such fun doing this and we would like to try again. Any one have any advice? Kind of funny, koolaid spilled on their clothes fails to come off when washed and when I want it to stay, it washes out.

Equipment and Supplies: T-shirt (cotton works best) Unsweetened Kool-Aid Vinegar Small plastic bowls Plastic gloves Rubber bands Directions: For every color you wish to use, combine 1 package Kool-Aid and 1 ounce of vinegar in individual plastic bowls. Mix until Kool-Aid is dissolved. Using rubber bands, pull and twist T-shirt into different shapes. Dip rubber-banded ends in bowls (make sure you wear gloves or your hands will stain). To set colors, iron on medium-high using an ironing cloth between shirt and iron. Let set for 24 hours before washing. Wash separately the first time.
