I used a "Blue washout Pencil." I have it in the washer right now for the second time. This time I used detergent and Oxyclean. Any suggestions? I'm really worried! 
Thanks for any help you can give me.
I use SOAP, not detergent to get out many stains that the detergent doesn't touch. Fels or Castile SOAP in bar form is terriffic. Wet the cloth, wet the soap, rub the soap onto the marks. Work the soap into the stain, then wash....take a look before it goes into the drier. If it is gone, then dry it, gently.
