I purchased some Dylon about a month ago and figure this thread would be a good place to share the method and results. I don't really know what I'm doing but did some Googling, read the instructions on the manufacturer's website, and looked at this thread.

Two pairs of cream hose: one mostly wool (not sure exact content because they belong to a friend), one wool synthetic blend.

1. Rinse in warm tap water, then briefly soak in warm water and some white vinegar. Squeeze (NOT wring) dry.

2. Dissolve 5 Tbsp salt in warm water in a metal pot.

3. Dissolve 1 pack Dylon dark green dye in a jar of warm water, shake well then add to the salt water.

4. Add hose to pot and enough warm water to cover, while stirring continuously.

5. Place on stove at medium low heat and bring to a simmer, while stirring continuously. (approx. 20 mins)

6. Turn off heat when the water has just started to show signs of bubbling. Let stand for 45 minutes, stir occasionally.

7. Wearing rubber gloves, remove hose to sink. Squeeze out excess dye, then rinse with warm water till it runs clear. Final rinse with cool water.

8. Squeeze out water and hang to dry.

The image I'm posting is against Douglas modern for reference. The wool/synthetic blend came out soft lovat green and the mostly wool came out dark green but a little lighter than the package. I'm pleased; they are now ACBW
