ok.. I had bought a lot of fall clothes for my 6mth dd and my 2.5year ds. I had put them in the washer last night to wash them and decided to wait until moring to run them thru thinking that I would wash pj's from that night, well I jus thad the chance today to run the pjs from last night and the clothes from today down to the washer.. To my surprise the washer had already been run..
I went to take the clothes out and everything is blue!!! My DH put a blue knit blanket in the wash... I have told him many time s not to wash the kint blankets for anything but the baby blakets because they always bleed! So now all those nice new cloths are ruened!!!

Can anyone help? Suggestions on what to do??

i hate that...

hrm. i guess a few suggestions would be to try to soak out the coloring in oxyclean..boiling on the stove is the method i always hear works

i've heard hairspray can take out ink, maybe that'd work here too?

if some stuff is white you could try the new clorox bleach pen?

you could also try Thiourea dioxide . its what i use to remove procion dye from fabric if i mess up
i'm not sure it would work but for a few bucks it might be worth a shot? you can get it at dharmatrading.com

you could also dye the clothing if that would work on some of it maybe?

I've seen these things that look like/come in a box like dryer sheets. Supposed to get dye out... I think the brand was woolite ?

I saw them at the dollar tree.
