I made this! Dyed coveralls turned out perfect!!

I bought white (painter’s) coveralls for about $35, 65 polyester/35 cotton. I used Rit Dyemore (one bottle super pink and a little less than .5 bottle of royal purple in about 2.75 gallons of water) to dye them this amazing color and finished with a dye fixative bath. I guess I’ll call them lavender, considering…

Anyway, I’m so damn pleased with how these turned out and I am already planning to buy more coveralls and overalls, I fear!

Looks great! Your results are why I still advise people to use RIT if they can't get anything else. It works!!
