Tried for a masking pattern while dyeing this top.  Let me know what you think.

Wasn't too bad.  The only difference between this and just a regular dye was squirting hot glue all over the thing.

After hallucinating a purple dog in the center of the photo, I then imagined dogs chasing each other around the top, or just one dog chasing its own tail. Dog lovers would snap them up.

No surprise -- little if anything truly new in the world of top design nowadays. Not counting materials, you can find a prior example of nearly any "new" top in Cyril's collection alone.

Another attempt at dye patterns.  Unfortunately I got too hollow crazy and this top had to be scrapped (one wall too thin and too fragile for actual play).
