what is soaking in the bowl?
it was boiled with flour to make it absorb better! it's said that you won't sweat wearing this fabric in summer time, I will need to verify it this summer. 👀
Is that a way to dye fabric?
this is a later stage - you can dye the yarn, or you can also dye it after the garment is finished, it's quite flexible and really depends on what you want!
