Suppress dyeing method
First Claim
1. A method of coloring a textile substrate which comprises applying a dye from an oil medium to part but not all of the surface of the substrate by immersing the substrate in a gathered configuration into the oil medium containing a dye dissolved or dispersed therein for a time sufficient so that the dye-containing oil comes into contact with only part of the surface of the substrate, said dye being one which is capable of imparting a desired color to the substrate and said oil being of sufficient viscosity that it does not readily wick into the fibers of the textile substrate in those areas where it has not been applied.

Abstract
A textile substrate is dyed by immersing it in a gathered configuration into an oil medium containing a dissolved or dispersed dye for a sufficient time to allow the oil medium to come into contact with part but not all of the surface of the substrate and the thus-treated substrate is then preferably immersed in an aqueous medium having another dye dissolved or dispersed therein.

- 15. A method of coloring a textile substrate which comprises dissolving a solvent dye in a solvent therefor, mixing the resulting solution with an oil medium and applying the dye from the oil medium to part but not all of the surface of the substrate by introducing the substrate into the oil medium containing the dissolved dye so that the oil comes into contact with only part of the surface of the substrate, said dye being one which is capable of imparting a desired color to the substrate and said oil being of sufficient viscosity that it does not readily wick into the fibers of the textile substrate in those areas where it has not been applied.
