Washing Colors Without Bleeding
To set colors in colored items, soak them for an hour in a mix of 1/2 cup vinegar, 1/2 tablespoon of salt, and 1/2 gallon of water. If the rinse water shows color after an hour, repeat the process. Use this technique only for single-colored items, because multi-colored items may bleed into each other. Multicolored items will likely need to be dry-cleaned.=)
just a couple of regular wahings should do it
It would be helpful to know what kind of fabric they are. I will assume that they are washable. Use cold water and wash alone in case the dye runs. At one time of day when people dyed their own clothes, you used to add salt to the water to minimize how much dye came out.
wash in hot water byself, be sure not 100% cotton, then wash again byself, that should do it. If these are new jeans wash with some old ones it wont hurt them.
wash, seperarly in hot watr, it might take more than one try to get all the dye out, but its worth it.
