BLACK Pole Dyed Shibori - With And Without Salt

I could say we were doing an experiment to see what effect salt has on using Procion dye to dye fabric.
But the truth is I was the leader and "I" was the one who forgot to add the salt to the bucket when we did the first shibori pole dyeing last month.
So this week we redid our project and Beth and Nancy were responsible to add the salt.
It really made a difference.
The fabrics in the top row are the ones where we added the salt.
Those in the bottom row are the ones without salt.
Some of them were WET when we put them in the bucket and some were dry.
Water acts as a resist and all you have to remember is WET = WHITE.
I chose black as the color of dye to use as it is the hardest color to dye.
We used a no longer available black dye I used to get from Dharma. I believe they do have a new one to replace it but I have not worked with it as I still have a supply of this one.
