RE: My Crocheted Umbrella Pouch, Tie and Dye Scarf_ by @needleworkmonday

Hi there! It's easy to remove. First, pour a small amount kerosine on the prints and roll it for few hours. A paint thinner would be fine. Soaking overnight is better. Next, dip in boiling water with soap and chlorine. Soak for a while and brush. Repeat as needed until the prints are gone.
For lesser effort, you can buy a plain 100% mercerized cotton cloth that's similar to flour sack.
You can also make an experiment in tying using your old t-shirts or denims. It's really cool. Dyed tote bags would be great too. Try it!
Thanks for dropping by.

Note: You can invert the sack cloth too. Here's another idea: use the ones without the print for your tops then you can make shorts with the prints on it and dye it with the same color as that of the prints.

Ooooh thanks for the tips! I had no idea I could get the print off like that!

You're welcome! Looking forward to that!
