A laundry basket full of clothes. I've just accidentally washed new white tops (which contain slight splashes of color design) with a blue skirt. Now the main body of both white tops is pale blue. What can I do?

Homemade Dye Remover

My Mom has been using this recipe for years to fix this problem. Mix 1/2 cup bleach and 1/2 cup powdered Cascade in a 2-gallon bucket of warm water. Mix until the Cascade is dissolved and soak item for about 2 hours Then wash the item in cold water.
