Default Re: Keeping blacks black

The agitation in the washer (kinda unavoidable) and in the dryer (very avoidable) certainly fade jeans quicker than most other factors (not including bleach). I would strongly suggest the inside-out approach followed by line drying. In an effort to keep our energy needs low, my family has gone with line drying all clothing. The clothing lasts a LONG time when this avenue is followed...

Not sure about Sharpies, but what about throwing a few chocolate dipped doughnuts in with the wash?
