After washing my husband's shirts with Clorox, they're all yellow! Why did this happen? Can I save the shirts and turn them white again?
Please help!

Did you pour the bleach directly on the shirts? You need to put the bleach in the water, not on the clothes.

I'm not sure. I poured in the bleach as the machine was filling up. Thanks for pointing it out, I'll be more careful next time...
But is there any way to get these yellow shirts white again?

Soak in solution of hydrogen peroxide and water and hang outside in the sun to dry. Works wonders. Great on all whites including woolen tzitzis.
