Tie-dyeing beach towels is one of the hardest things you can dye because they're so absorbent, but I'm walking you through exactly how I do it with a classic shibori triangle fold. In this video, I'm dyeing two IKEA towels (about $10 each) for my sister, one cool toned and one warm toned, using the accordion shibori fold, a soda ash sprinkle method, and an ice dye technique.
