Oh dear

My new blue shirt has got mysterious green stains on it about the middle of the waistband. I suspect that dye or something has either come off my jacket or my jeans. The weird thing is, the jacket is grey and the jeans are blue. I would be more inclined to suspect the jeans, but the stains look more like they're on the outside of the material. And now that I come to think of it, the same thing happened to my pink t-shirt, and I don't think they came off. Okay, no light-coloured tops with that jacket in future, then.

There are products here in the states, such as redout, which can help with that, but your best bet is to never put anything in the dryer which might have gotten some bleedout from another garment. Always check first. If this shirt hasn't been forcibly dryer-dried, you might still be able to get the stuff out by soaking.

Good luck. I always hate it when that happens.

Yeah, it's soaking in the bath at the minute. I think that I only noticed the stain on the pink one after it had come out of the dryer. Hate it when that happens...
