My sem dd washed all her clothes in one big load and her blue sweatshirt ran and ruined a few things. Any suggestions on how we can undo the damage?

Extra points if the products recommended are easily purchased in Israel.

You can try washing again and put in a few sheets of shout color catcher

Color catcher worked for me a couple of times already.
Adding vinegar to the load might also help. But if she put the stuff in the dryer already, than theres nothing to be done.

Another vote for the Shout color catcher sheets. And keep them on hand to avoid such situations - I use 2-3 when washing dd's black and white color block dress.

Does it help once the color ran already? My sons white shirt trimmed with a bit of navy blue ruined in the wash. A little blue ran onto the shirt. Would this help?

I find that using a few of the sheets to wash out that one garment after the fact can sometimes help too.

Wash them again with RIT Color Remover, which is made for this purpose. Follow package directions.
