They are supposed to "catch" stray dye particles so they go out in the rinse water rather than settle back on the material and staining them. I think in a regular wash it also helps the dirt not to land back on the clothes. I know that I used it on a quilt that I washed for the first time and also for some darker fabric that I prewashed and it was amazing, it went in white and came out gray.
Oh, got mine at Joann's.
