hi I'm mr. tie-dye welcome to my channel

so today I'm gonna do another hoodie

video I had another request for just

somebody wanted to know about doing a

spiral on a hoodie and how to get the

sleeves in the hood to lay flat so I was

just gonna do a quick video and show how

I do it let's see if we could make that

a little easier so anyways when I'm

doing a spiral on a hoodie what I

usually do we'll turn it over and put

the front of the hoodie down and mostly

that distance is because the the bottom

side of the hoodie is it gets the nicest

smoothest area because as you twist it

it's all flat on the bottom so that way

the front of the hoodie has the nicer

spiral lines on it so what I will

usually do then is kind of Center the

spiral on the chest a little bit so I

just kind of find like where the the

neckline is and then I can reach down

and I can feel this here is the line of

the pocket so I just kind of go right in

between those maybe just down just a

little bit and that puts the spiral then

more on the the chest the center of the

spiral and then I just twist it up and

the main thing with the hoodie just for

getting it to lay as flat as possible is

just breaking your your lines out here

and any of these creases just getting

them to lay down flat so I just kind of

work it around as I go and I'll twist

some more sometimes with the hoodie

rather than trying to pinch that one

little spot I'll use my whole hand once

they get started and just twist around

and at some point the sleeves in the

hood are gonna be the next part that you

have to wrap in there so like I say I'm

trying to get as much of this hoodie to

lay flat as possible and then once I get

to the part of the sleeves so right here

it's all laid the sleeve out and kind of

stretched it out nice and flat lay it

out strong or straight like this here

and then I encourage the

the sleeves to have these same creases

going along them as that I do have in

the rest of the hoodie here and that

just helps get them to lay nice and flat

so I'll just kind of start working the

the sleeve right here at the armpit and

just lay in it and you can see how this

here just wanting to curve right along

with it so I'll get that going and then

as I twist it then I have my other

sleeve here but I also have the hood

here so the hood is usually the next

thing that I work with and one of the

things you can do sometimes I'll take a

rubber band just to hold things in place

a little bit because I already got that

other sleeve laying nicely and the other

thing rubber band when you're holding it

in place then you can go back and adjust

these folds a little bit and get them to

lay even flatter and nicer in there so

that's a nice tool just to put that

rubber band on there and allow you to

kind of work with some of these folds

here give you a room to open those up

and adjust them a little bit and then

for the hood like I say I'll open the

hood up like this here

like I say we're looking at the backside

of the hood so I'm just opening that

hood all the way up and then I'm gonna

do the same type of thing here I'm gonna

get some of these creases to lay and

part of it is gonna be a little wonky

just because the hood isn't completely

flat but just to get that to layin as

flat as possible so whether you have to

cut a scrunch a little bit or pleat a

little bit in this hood once you kind of

have it arranged a little bit then I

just slowly wrap it around the hood here

you want to make sure that you don't

pull too hard or you'll undo your spiral

your very twisted it here so I'm just

getting that filleted nice and flat

there and you can even open this rubber

band up

and expand it to hold the hood in place

sometimes the hood you feel like you

need an extra hand in here so now I can

straighten this other sleeve out get it

laid out flat and just extending

straight out from the hood here or from

the rest of the hoodie and then I'm

gonna do the same thing I'm just going

to create some of these creases here and

just get it to lay nicely alongside the

rest of the video and that's how I do

the twisting on the hoodie to get the

sleeves worked in there and then I like

to use kite string to tie my stuff up

with just because I can adjust the

tension on things

how and where I want to and I'll put a

link to my kite string video down in the

description box to show you how I work

with kite string and it also includes

how I work with Sydney so I can go

around this and tie you know flatten out

individual pieces tuck them under the

kite string and then tighten that up

well I just keep making adjustments just

so this here is laying as flat as

possible and that I have access to all

of these creases because that's the

other thing with the hoodies once you

start dyeing it it looks like

everything's died but then if you start

opening these cracks and crevices up

you'll find that there's white spaces in

there so I like to make sure that I

don't have too many of these creases

that are laying flat over top of stuff

because really then it's height in the

section.
