My mother would wash her linens and rinse real well, and lay them on the green grass in the sun. I use white vinegar in the rinse and if still discolored, out they go to greener pastures.

I purchased Restoration at a talk about vintage textiles. I have used it two times and it works great, removed yellowed and browned areas on knit sweaters and woven items.
