As just an FYI...a Ronstar is an airplane fold type of Mandala where you take the airplane folds and you go back and forth at 90 degrees each time wrapping sinew in the same direction. You could call this a variation of a ronstar. I've made a couple but they can really be tedious unless you are using a BIG piece of fabric. Both of my hands were sore after doing them. It's a lot of work and a lot of wrestling with the fabric and a lot of pulling sinew.

Yeah, I agree. That fold over has to have a name of some sort. “Umm, do what I just did” isn’t going to cut it forever. 😉❤️🌈

That's how I do a Ron star fold. I never really knew if I was doing it right. Tie dye Ron is how I learned, when there were very few instructional videos on tie dyeing. Bless you Tie Dye Ron, wherever you are. I like the attribution tradition of tie dyeing.

I don't care what it's called. I L❤VE IT! 😍

Gorgeous. The offset with the dye created a nice tropical ocean feel to it. ✌🏻

I think we came up with that name because it looks like a “chevron” pattern. “Steph-ron” instead of chevron. I think Ron’s work requires more folding back and forth. I have made a Ron star so I’m not exactly sure. ❤️🌈

I love everything about this! I love the pattern, the colors, the white lines, everything!! Truly gorgeous!! 💚💙💚💙💚💙

I don’t know what to call this other than amazing. The colors combined so nicely. Blue is my favorite color and the green really is the highlight of this one. 🌀💗🌀

Love the chevrons!!

thank you! this was just the tutorial I was looking for! I had a hard time finding it because I dont know what's it's called either.

Excellent tutorial. Thanks for sharing Steph.

Ronstar I think only applies to airplane fold, you do a sinew line then fold it 90 degrees and sinew again. This could be called Ronstar-esque maybe.

I think it turned out great. Very interesting fold. Haven't seen one like that so far.

I love it. The pattern and color. If I try it, I think I would go vertical pattern instead of horizontal. This is great and reminds me of a rock bottom swimming pool my uncle made.

Nice shirt.

The shirt is beautiful! This is a technic I will have to really practice with. I like it veryuch

Hi Steph So, yes! I’ve heard it called a Ron-star-twist, perhaps because it is the way Ron did stars (except they had tapered radial pleats). I would have called it a twisted pleat. I love the repetitive randomness of this design - also used in a radial fashion on Courtenay’s famous Greek Theatre backdrop tapestries, I believe. I would tend to give him credit in the naming . . . Courtenay’s twisted pleats maybe - but Steph Ron works!

Nice! All that folding and wrapping better have paid off, right? LoL I'm loving the bluish and greens.

I don't know about ronstar but you are using a classic shibori folding technique. It starts with an accordion fold and then a flag fold. The difference is in how you bind it. I learned to bind it like this with sinew. But you can also clamp pieces of wood on it - anything that will give it a resist. White space. Also, shibori is traditionally dyed in one color - indigo but you dont have to. I learned to do it more than 25 years ago. My favorite shibori fold is Arashi and i like to leave the pleats.

I found the ronstar and he calls it "RonStar with a Twist. So it's loosely based on Itajime Shibori. But his folds are sort of extended. With the Itajime you end up with a 'cube' of folded material. So I think saying the fold technique you used is 'RonStar With a Twist' you are giving him adequate credit. Peace out.

Really nice design Steph , the green looks like lots of trees in a forest 🌲

I love yours and other tie dye channels, but I seriously cringe every time I hear people recommend Amazon. Shirt quality is a big factor. I have been enjoying Bayside shirts for a while. My other go to shirts are Hanes. For summer designs I look for a tshirt that is less than 5oz fabric. I got some Gildan hoodies for the price but have not dyed them yet. Hanes ultimate hoodies are the ones I normally use. 4x-6x hoodies are hard to find in all cotton for less than $30. Ramble ramble ramble...

I would never buy shirts from Amazon. All my other tie dye gadgets come from there though. The links help us pay for our channel’s that’s why you hear us mention Amazon. Just simply clicking a link without buying anything gives a few cents. Sadly, nothing comes for free. I have to pay for all this somehow. I don’t like Hanes shirts at all. I find them to be way too small. I prefer Gildan & Port & Company. They are the best for me. I personally like to wear George from Walmart. They are the softest. For hoodies I use 100% cotton Port & Company. ❤️🌈

@@BelladonnaDyesCothanks for a reply. I've never really thought about sizing. I will have to do a comparison. I do know that my Gildan long sleeves all sold very quickly and I plan on getting more this fall. I haven't tried port and company, but the reviews seem very positive. When I need more short sleeves, I am going to try Gildan's new softer shirts; I think they are the 600 series but I'll have to check again. I like Dancing Robin shirts too, but I've never seen them on sale. I've only been doing tie dyes since last September so I am growing my preferences and appreciate your input.
