I always figured for the bleeding, that the color catchers will keep that from happening??
Color catchers don't stop the bleeding. They just pick the dye up out of the wash water.
Honestly though, if another fabric doesn't pick that loose dye up it's not a problem.
Oh whew!!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!! :o)
Problem is, you never know which fabric is gonna do it to ya. I just washed a bunch of black & white fabric. One of the lighter ones picked up the loose black. Now it is grayer instead of crisp black & white. Another one that had even more white that was in the same load came out still bright white. I think it's a crap shoot whether you prewash or not. I still do it to lessen my chances though!
