This marks my second batch of avocado dye. Still not using any mordant-my same recipe from last time, but with maybe five or six more pits. This time I left the pits in while the fabric soaked, and it has seemed to create these sort of marks and clouds. Another thing I did differently was after taking the fabric out of the dye bath and hanging it to dry, I soaked it in a mixture of half vinegar half water to set it. I left it in there for two nights. The pic below was snapped after removing it from the vinegar mixture and while it was drying.
