Dyeing With Procion MX Fiber Reactive Dyes

This is my favorite type of dye. This dye is suitable for all cellulose fibers (cotton, rayon, linen, wood, even tagua nuts). It gives brilliant, saturated colors. Its has a good rating for both light-fastness and wash-fastness. It also doesn't require any heavily toxic chemicals. Although you have to be careful with the soda ash.
