## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this work if I want to dye my house carpets ? 🤔🤔**
A: This dye will only work on natural fibers like cotton, most carpets are synthetic fibers

**Q: how much water would i have to mix this amount of dye with?**
A: Complete instructions are at www.ritdye.com. It depends on how much dye you are using, etc. I usually use a dishwashing tub, about 2/3 full.

**Q: if I use this violet dye on an orange linen dress, will it come out violet or some other color?**
A: Using this dye on other colors, the result was a blend of the original color with a red-violet tinge, turning a light brown to warm red-purple,  as this is an orchid purple that leans pink. Also, if an item is a light orange with larger amounts of dye that isn't diluted with a lot of water, the result will be closer to that orchid purple. If it's darker orange, I think the result will be more of a reddish color.

**Q: I'm trying for a light pastel shade of purple, more lilac, can this be achieved by controlling the dye amounts or perhaps exposure time? Thank You**
A: Not this violet one.  Buy the purple dye and yes!  If you do not use fixative the dye comes out light.  More fabric or 1/2 bottle will do it.  Honestly I out more items it to spread the dye and only salt.   Then wash immediately with soap to remove any excess.  I always use the machine to dye.
