Many people aren't and would have just lived with it.<BR/><BR/>Just a quick note, one of the reasons you spent an eternity at the sink rinsing is because of the red. When I dye fabrics I pretty much commit to turning my skin puckered when I do my reds. That color bleeds like crazy and takes an amazing amount of time to get the excess out. So be careful when you wash it again, it most likely will bleed a little time each time you do. Keep it away from your pretty white sweaters!Fibra Artystahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15121605078535663853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443300355315157565.post-4325428466869213262008-10-05T06:25:00.000-07:002008-10-05T06:25:00.000-07:00nice...
