I have found the dye catchers near the softner sheets at WM. But Joanne's has a similar thing, only reuseable for about 30 washes. Do you have a JA's near you? Hope you can get this solved, it must be really frustrating!
I tried salt, epsom salt and vinegar and nothing stopped the bleeding. I rolled mine in old bath towels and then hung them on the line - so did not use the dryer so was not able to use the dye catchers.
Sorry, I was unclear, the dye catchers go in the washer with your fabric. If I have fabric that I feel is going to bleed a lot, I sometimes throw 3 or 4 in. But usually 1 does the trick.
EDA: Sorry, I see that someone already clarified. I was in a hurry so didn't read all the previous posts.
