Recipe to Keep Colors from Running
Not sure where exactly to post this:
After soaking deep reds and even washing them with a Color Catcher, my fabric kept bleeding. (It was from the Kansas Troubles line, not a cheapo). I called and asked my LQS owner what to do.
She gave me this tried and true Amish "recipe" (minus the Color Catcher--which she adds because it makes her feel better). She uses it and it has never failed her. I tried it and no more bleeding fabric!
To keep colors from running:
2 Tablespoons salt
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 Tablespoons detergent (brand doesn't matter)
1 Color Catcher *by Shout
