How to Dye a Flokati Rug
- 1). Place your clothes washer on the largest load and longest cycle possible. It takes approximately 30 minutes for most dyes to set.
- 2). Turn on the washing machine and allow it to fill with warm water. Place the rug into the water and saturate it. Once saturated, remove the rug from the water.
- 3). Add four powered packages of dye to the water and allow it time to dissolve. If using a liquid dye, add two liquid bottles and allow it to spread around.
- 4). Place the rug into the water, then run the washing machine on a full cycle.
- 5). Run the rug under cold water until the water runs through the rug and comes out clear.
- 6). Hang the rug out on a clothesline to air dry. Do not dry the rug in an electric dryer since it is 100-percent wool.
