CAUTION: All our colors tend to have high fastnesses to light and washing. However, dark and bright colors, in the presence of alkaline or very aggressive soaps and prolonged processing/washing, may show even significant color loss. For materials dyed with these types of colors, we therefore recommend that a small sample be processed and washed before the final design is made. This is absolutely essential in case these materials are combined with raw or light-colored materials. In addition, it is a good idea never to dry artifacts in direct sunlight but in semi-shade.
