Stardew Valley: How to Dye Clothes


Unlocking Dyeing:


Before embarking on your sartorial adventures, you'll need to unlock the ability to dye clothes. This occurs after obtaining at least one piece of Cloth. Following this, Emily will present you with a sewing machine during a cutscene, granting you access to her Sewing Room and its dyeing capabilities.

Method 1: Dye Pots


The Dye Pots, located on the right side of Emily's Sewing Room, offer a straightforward approach to dyeing clothes. Here's how to use them:

  • 1. Gather Dye Materials: Each Dye Pot requires a specific colored item. Examples include flowers (red rose, daffodil, etc.), gemstones (amethyst, ruby, etc.), or certain crops (void star, poppy, etc.). Consult the in-game crafting menu for a complete list of compatible items and their corresponding colors.
  • 2. Fill the Dye Pots: Place one item of the desired color in each pot. As you add items, the Dye Bottle underneath the pots will illuminate with a rainbow sheen.
  • 3. Select and Customize Your Color: Click on the glowing Dye Bottle. This opens a color selection window with sliders for Hue, Saturation, and Lightness. Adjust these sliders to achieve your perfect shade.
  • 4. Dye Your Clothes: Once satisfied with the chosen color, click "OK" to permanently dye the clothing items you are currently wearing.

Method 2: Sewing Machine


The Sewing Machine offers a more dynamic approach to dyeing. Here's how it works:

  • 1. Place Clothing in the Machine: Put the garment you wish to dye in the designated slot on the left side of the Sewing Machine.
  • 2. Dye with Additional Items: Instead of pre-set colors, the Sewing Machine mixes the color of your clothes with the color of the item you use for dyeing. For example, a white shirt dyed with a yellow flower will result in a green shirt, not a yellow one. Experiment with different colored items to achieve unique results.
  • 3. Multiple Dyes for Opacity: For richer and more opaque colors, you might need to dye your clothes multiple times using the same colored item.

Advanced Dyeing with Prismatic Shard or Rainbow Shell:


For the truly adventurous dyers, using a Prismatic Shard or Rainbow Shell in the Sewing Machine unlocks a special option. These rare items bypass the color mixing process and grant access to the same color selection menu as the Dye Pots, allowing you to create any color imaginable.

In conclusion, we hope that this guide on How to Dye Clothes in Stardew Valley is useful to you and that you can learn how to dye your characters' clothes, while enjoying the experiences that Stardew Valley has for you.
