Why Use Soda Ash with Procion MX Type Dyes?

Glenda Hopp of http://SoManyColors.net shows why soda ash is essential when dyeing fabric with Procion MX type dyes.

If you have forgotten to add soda ash at some point during the dyeing process, see this post by Paula Burch: http://www.pburch.net/dyeing/dyeblog/C1605100905/E20080528081322/.

Paula has the most comprehensive site about all types of hand dyeing. For more info about her, see: http://www.pburch.net/dyeing/aboutthissite.shtml

I've learned so much from her site and I highly recommend it for beginning and experienced dyers.
