      Wet your hemp under hot running water until soaked. This is a vital step! Add the wet hemp to your food coloring mixture and let sit for 10 minutes while mixing the liquid now and then.

      If you’re talking about hemp string/fiber–soak it in hot water until it’s saturated–leave it for a while, if you’d like—Mix 2/3C hot water with 2TBS of white vinegar. Add your food coloring… at least 30 drops. Let the fiber soak until you get it colored to your desired shade (bear in mind that it will be darker while wet), stirring the mixture occasionally. When you reach your desired color, please remove it from the food coloring solution, and dry it overnight on paper towels.

      It’s a pretty simple process, but you’ll want to be sure of a few critical steps along the way:

      1. Combine vinegar and water into a mixture, about 3/4ths hot water a couple of tablespoons of white vinegar.

      2. Fill this mixture with a moderate amount of food coloring. 15-25 drops will do.

      3. Soak your hemp is hot water to prepare it.

      4. Let the hemp sit in your food coloring mixture for at least 10 minutes or until the dye has saturated the hemp generously. The darker stain will work better, usually!

      5. Remove the hemp from your mixture and run under hot water and then cold water. Let the hemp sit out and dry overnight!

      This is similar to other textile dye procedures but requires some special fiber-reactive dye so that the coloring can soak into the material. You will first separate the twine by stretching it out, a process done through making a hank. Then, soak it in a solution with hot water and a textile cleaning product so that the twine can be cleaned before the dye is added. Next, mix 1tbsp of the dye with 2 cups of warm water and stirring until the dye dissolves. Let the hemp twine then soak in this solution for 10-15mins and afterward place in a solution of baking soda and warm water before adding back into the dye solution for a few more minutes. To finish the dyeing process, gently squeeze the hemp twine to remove the solution and let soak in warm water and then let dry.
