Tie-dye garments in approved colour families and sizes
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional clothing batch: tie-dye ten adult cotton T-shirts in an approved two-colour spiral style, with a size roster of two S, four M and four L. Purchase an eleventh same-fabric shirt for the process sample. The buyer accepts natural pattern variation while approving the palette and finished measurements. Use a commercial kit matched to the documented fibre and total dry cloth load. Exclude bleach discharge, homemade chemical mixtures and guarantees that every spiral will be identical.
