I like this a whole lot! It is so retro and so fun to look at! I see bags like this being sold in boardwalk boutiques and souvenier shops and they are not cheap, let's just say that much! I would like to have a chance to try my hand at this tie dye with the bottles. I have seen them at the stores for a while now, but I never had a project that I felt drawn to enough to be able to dig in and give it a try. Thanks for the great tutorial.

This is one impressive project! Instead of using a neon, cake style yarn, this designer gives the crafter detailed instructions on how to actually tie dye the body of the bag. The result is just beautiful, and having done quite a bit of tie dye back in the day, I can attest that the new bottle method is a LOT easier to work with. Wish we had those kits then!
