While doing a load of laundry, a red skirt bled onto 2 off-white shirts with designs and an off-white, red and black striped knit dress. Re-washing the garments didn't help. I then soaked them in oxi-clean laundry detergent for 2 days but they still have pink stains. Any advice to salvage these stuff?

I've heard good things about this http://carbona.com/products/la.....over/

Unfortunately, if you've already dried the stained items the red may be impossible to remove.

Google "crayon dryer" or smth like that. See specifically results from crayola website. They have some easy method that includes dishwashing liquid, vinegar and something else. It takes out crayon marks that were melted into clothing in a dryer. Maybe it will help take out the dye.

As long as it didn't go through the dryer you have a chance. I second the carbona. Wash twice if needed.
