I plan to make some men's shirts of some hemp and hemp/cotton blend material, but I want them a different color from the natural material I have. LIght colors, mostly. Should I dye the material first or dye the shirt after I've made it? They aren't anything fancy and I'm not looking for perfection. I don't have the facilities for dyeing big chunks of material, but could handle a shirt, hence the question. Maybe I could engage someone with experience to dye material for me, also.Thinking I might get some interesting effects by dyeing after construction. Anybody had any experience in this? Any dye-type recommendation? Thanks, JPBill
