I'm sure there's more-succinct versions online, @gidgetgh, but this was on Rit's website.
Go take a nap. ;-)

I cannot be the only one rolling on the couch laughing. Oh goodness, what a complicate, messy silly thing. And those directions....really???? But even if you did it, the stitching on your jeans would also get dyed. Your jeans wouldn't have that jeans look. Am I the only one who doesn't have any jeans tongs...lol It's so much easier just to buy the right color from the get go. I'm a pear shape....I wear light wash jeans all the time in the summer. I prefer light jeans in the summer.

Ritt....now it makes sense. Obviously the work group that put that thing together, never actually dyed any jeans....lol

I guess it would be inevitable that the contrast stitching would be dyed. In my world, that would not be a big issue. I guess it would make them look more like trouser jeans than regular jeans.
However, if you do dye your jeans, be sure to use a "Color Grabber" sheet when you wash them...if you put them in the washer with other items. I love those Color Grabber sheets. I'm always amazed at how much color they grab.

The thread is usually polyester and does not absorb color as much as the cotton does. I don't think you can dye polyester.

I've never had any luck doing that. I couldn't see a bit of difference.
