Will the mat colors bleed if used for wet blocking crochet projects?

I used a steamer to block acrylic squares. The color of the blocks did not bleed through. My next project is an ecru colored cotton doily. I will be using the wet blocking method. I will let you know how it turns out.

Hello, SueBee. I have no idea what "wet blocking crochet projects are" so I asked my wife....and she didn't know either. She's into quilting and not crochet. So, what I did was this; I took 2 of the darker colored "tiles" and brought them upstairs to the kitchen. There I wet a white paper towel and scrubbed them both (pink and purple) and absolutely NO color came off into the towel. Assuming that your crochet work doesn't involve solvents, heat or much friction, I would think that they would be absolutely safe for your projects. I hope this is helpful. All the best.

Yes; as long as you are able to apply heat to your hand work. Be aware of any colors in your work that might bleed.

Yes, you can use our 4x Laundry Detergent on delicate fabrics that are safe to be washed. We have tested on wool, silk, linen, chiffon, and other delicates. It will not bleed colors, nor damage the fibers. Thanks for your question. Sean @ Puracy

The cured silicone is an aquamarine color. It shouldn't bleed color into your soaps once it is cured. Thank you.

The cutting mat is a milky color but there isn't any problem seeing through it. If I were to print a screen copy of this Internet page, I wouldn't have any problem reading the text through the mat! The mat surface has a very mild texture and makes a good cutting surface.

I bought it to crochet an entry rug, which i have not finished yet. It does not look like it will bleed.

Yes - that's what I use it with. Don't use the cutting mat, just put the vinyl sheet in by itself and make sure your cutting settings say vinyl. I set mine to Silhouette brand and haven't had any problems,

I bought the rainbow colored maya wrap and I washed it quite a few times. It never bled color on the rest of the laundry load.

To add to Amanda's answer......These are used to pin down knit or crochet projects when blocking to correct size. As example, if your project is supposed to be 4 inches by 4 inches square, you can dampen the knitting/crochet and pin to an accurate 4 x 4 square and let air dry. When dry, your project should be 'blocked' to size. The pins do not rust so no probs with getting wet. I'm sure there are many other uses outside of blocking fiber designs. ;->

If you use natural fibers and use a real detergent (Tide, Gain, Arm and Hammer, Wisk, Foca, Persil, etc...) you will have no issues with this ointment. If you use a weaker detergent or you use synthetic fibers, you may have an issue with staining, but it won't cause repelling. I usually use Tide original powder to line 3 and I use microfleece liners with flats because of a wetness sensitivity. I have never had issues with staining. My microfleece liners don't stain either.

It will not bleed through on most paper. black paper is the best choice when using these but it will certainly work on white and not bleed through on most Brands

I tested on copy paper - used dry, they would not bleed through, but you can see it from the other side. If used with water, they would bleed through.

I have the lighter purple and it has never stained. I think other mats stain because the absorb the sweat....these do not. I do wipe off the sweat with the spray or wipes the studio provides before I roll it up after class, but nothing more than that. I love my mat!!

Depends on the amount of coloring you're going to be doing; but honestly, I will never use this brand again. Use Avatar or Opaws brands, you'll get a much better color from them.

Im not sure I understand the question. I use my capes for coloring, shampooing, blow drying, styling...etc. If you are asking are they thick?...no I could imagine if some color dripped onto a cape it would stain the clients clothing but I just make sure im extra careful and make sure they are properly draped.

I used some heavier stock which did not bleed through. I practiced with typing paper to get my calligraphy the way I wanted it and don't remember that it bled through there.

I washed them in one group with nothing else for the first wash and the yellow darkened as if the blue, green and red bled. But all of the other colors look great. I have since washed the bibs multiple times with other items and have not had any bleeding. I separate whites, lights and darks when I wash but don't do a specific load for reds.
