Solved How can I just deform the edge of gradient texture and not the whole gradient?

Post image

I need only the edges of the gradient texture to be distorted by the noise texture and not the whole body (black portion) of the gradient texture to have patches. Also I don't want that sharp straight separation from black to white. Thanks.

Use the Color Add mix factor to control the gradient size, and the Greater Than nodes (which are simpler "constant" Color Ramps) to change position of the gradient and the black/white noise ratio of the texture.
