BYU Cougars Ice Dye

BYU ice dye is another powerful monochromatic study. Working with a single rich blue Procion MX creates pieces with remarkable tonal depth. Under ice, this navy-royal blue splits into cobalt, bright blue, steel blue, and hints of indigo — a full spectrum of blues from a single dye.

The monochromatic approach means the ice dye patterns become the star. Every crumple fold, every path of melting ice, every gradient from saturated to dilute creates visual interest. The result is a piece that's sophisticated and clean — deeply blue with beautiful tonal variation.

For Cougars pieces, we use a crumple that creates both broad saturated areas and detailed lighter zones. The range from near-black navy to pale sky blue on a single garment is striking. It's a clean, proud piece that captures the spirit of Provo and the Wasatch Front.
