Bloodstains
Dear Aunt Daisy, Please could you tell me how to take bloodstains out of a white woollen singlet?-Parnel/, Auckland. If the stains have been on some time, you might try soaking in cold water containing ammonia, afterwards rinsing in clear water, If the marks are stubborn, cover them on both sides of the material with a paste of cold water and raw starch, and put out in the sun. Then brush off the starch paste and wash. The starch’ paste will often remove scorch marks in the same way and does not spoil a coloured material.
