Dyeing is the process of changing the colors of dyeable clothing items, typically exclusive to Pants and Shirts. Dyeing can be done by using the dye pots or the Sewing Machine at Emily's and Haley's house on 2 Willow Lane, both of which are unlocked during a cutscene with Emily after obtaining at least 1 cloth.
The quality of the item being used as a dye has no effect on the dye results.
Dye Pots[]

The dye pots are located to the right of the Sewing Machine in Emily's and Haley's house. The player must be wearing dyable clothing items to begin dying, and each dyable clothing worn can be dyed at the same time without an extra cost per item.
Items in the inventory that can be used to dye are labeled by a small dot of color at the bottom left corner of each item's icon, indicating which dye pot the item can be placed into. Hovering the cursor over a dye pot will also show which items in the inventory can be placed within.
After placing at least one item in each dye pot, the dye bottle icon will light up and can be clicked to open up a new window with 3 sliders; one for the hue, one for saturation, and one for value. All items placed in the dye pots are consumed upon dye completion.
Dried Fruit, Dried Mushrooms, Jelly, Juice, Pickles, Roe and Aged Roe, Smoked Fish, Wine, and fish-specific Baits take on the color of the crop or fish used to make them. Otherwise the base versions of some of these items, typically acquired from the Traveling Cart with no specific type, function as specified in the tables below.

Sewing Machine[]

The Sewing Machine in Emily's and Haley's house can also used for dyeing, and the recipe to craft a personal Sewing Machine is acquired after completing Emily's special order quest, Rock Rejuvenation.
Unlike the dye pots, a dyeable clothing item is placed in the feed (lower left slot), with the item to be used as a dye placed in the spool (upper right slot), and will combine the clothing item's current color with the color of dye used depending on dye strength. The item in the spool is consumed upon dye completion.
Weak dyes have a 25% dye strength, ie. the clothing item will need to be dyed 4 times to reach the full color saturation. Medium dyes have a 50% strength and strong dyes have a 100% strength.
Using Prismatic Shard or Rainbow Shell to dye clothing will open a window with color sliders to choose the dye color.
