Ypu can buy something that you put in the wash that should take the colour out again -can't remember what its called but someone will come along who knows.

You could try Colour Run Rescue, most supermarkets have it.

does this stuff work on things with colours already in. i had a lovely beige duvet with red hearts on from ikea and put in the fixed sheet in the wash which was a reddy colour which i always wash together but for some reason my duvet is now pink and i really want it back to beige . have i ruined it?

It may not go back to the original colour sweetmonkey, as far as I can remember there is a warning on the side of the box that it may take some of the original colour out as well.

SB, if the colour run remover doesn't work you can always dye the babygros blue using one of those washing machine dyes. Mind you they're so cheap and babies grow so fast you could probably just give away the pink ones to someone with a girl and buy a new set in the next size up.

thanks bran. will have to give this some thought now.

Bran-thanks for the tip like you say they are cheap enough its just that they are the ones his Nanna bought and so I feel I should try and get them back to normal
