I’m not sure “hand” dyed is the way to describe that warm brown center.

wasn’t this the seller of “party sweater” or are there multiple people selling rainbow reflector pants? Am I hallucinating?

Maybe she should call it something arty that would imply that it was like the dried menstrual blood should of vagina or something?
Maybe party sweater bled on it.

shroud — I’m sure “should” was a Freudian slip, a magnicifent Freudian slip…

dried menstrual shroud of vagina with faded neon edges!

yes, same seller as the party sweater. although really, out of all the hideous things in her shop the “can’t stop the bustle” is the worst.

It was my first time. My lover and I went down to the river and made passionate love on my hanky. And then he left me. Now all I have left are my memories and my hanky.

Wanna buy it?

A. Does this really count as tie-dye? It’s more like, “oops, spilled an open bottle of shit brown dye in the middle of the scarf.”
B. Reminds of a certain scene in Trainspotting.

I know the poo centre is very eye-catching, but I would like to point out the subtlety of the pale yellow edges. It shows that the artist was reasonably well hydrated, and we all know how important that is. There’s a lesson in that for all of us.

#40 YankBoffin :

Toilet tie dye, or “toilet-dye” as the kids call it, is a popular up-and-going craft hobby. Rumor has it that it started in women’s detention centers out West, where craft supplies in lockup are limited to bedsheets and what ever can be “produced” at will. Earth-tone pieces are the most common, but there are exceptions. These pieces aren’t so much commissioned as they are inspired by fare available in the prisons’ cafeteria.

#37 – Cath – I’m glad you pointed out the subtle yellow edges – I think many people are missing that fantastic detail as the centerpiece of this creation takes all the attention.

Do you think the juxtapositioning of the dyed area (read: massive stain) over just about the most appropriate spot of her body was intentional or just a happy accident… eek.
