What is Solid Dyed Fabric?
Color fabrics are two types, yarn dyed and fabric dyed or solid dyed fabric. Solid dyed fabrics are dyed with the piece dyeing method, and the materials are also called piece dyed. In this case, piece dyeing is used for solid fabric where the fabric is dyed after weaving or knitting. Generally solid dyed fabric doesn’t have good color fastness compared to yarn-dyed. In this article I will discuss costing of solid dyed fabric for both stitch and non-stitch.
