Low Water Immersion: Color Parfait

In low water immersion you are doing everything wrong. In the color parfait the first piece (my red one) is put in the bottom of a cup dry. Your fabric should usually be wet to let the dye flow through it more easily. You pour a small amount of concentrated dye on top of the piece and let it sit. I folded this piece in a spiral. Then you put a second piece on top of that one (my middle piece) and pour a different color dye on top. I folded this piece like a fan and then in half. Then you do this a third time. When done this way the dye travels up and down just a little bit because of the folds and the lack of water, so each piece has one main color and a little bit of two others. With this method you can match even the three ugliest, clashiest colors and they will then look good together. For these I used fire red (top), clear yellow (middle), and chartreuse (bottom).
