Bordeaux purple

I needed a black T-shirt and for some reason H&M sell only black and white T-shirts combined. I liked the black one, but white just isn't my colour. So I decided to dye it!


I bought some DEKA dyes in Bordeaux Red. The instructions are  fairly simple: wash, cook, rinse, fix, dry, wear :-)
 


Although I've dyed fabrics several times before, cooking a T-shirt still seems wrong.


I'm quite happy with the result - although the colour is much more purple than Bordeaux red. On the other hand - the colour is exactly the same as on the bag.
