Yes you want the fabric free of sizing and chemicals before dying. When I was in school we learned to Batik and Black was the very last color we dyed because it has all colors in it. Yellow was one of the first colors we dyed. I would test the fabric. But I am thinking that you will have no problem dying the white yellow. You could even "paint" the yellow on with a brush.
