I don't need large amounts when I need colored thread, so I just get clothing dye at the grocery store and dip the thread right into the bottle.

how does the dye hold on linen? regular dye only?

The dye soaks into linen immediately. It is just Rit brand dye that we have at the grocery store here.

The only drawback is if you use beeswax on the thread, it makes it look funky.

You can also dye Barbours or other linen thread with leather dye - it works great and the wax does not make it look funky....
