Have you tried old fashioned "Blueing"? Its supposed to cancel out the yellow in clothes(like fro persperation stains and I remember my mom using it on slips that yellowed from chlorine bleach. The term"Blue Hair" denoting an aged lady was coined from the use of this same laundry blueing as a hair rinse to negate the yellow tinge grey,silver or white hair gets from age and enviorment. I would not,unfortunately, expect those tippets to last very long, theytend to shatter under stress after a bleaching. melody

Yes, I know, I shouldn´t have done that, but it was my last try to remove a nasty linnseed-oil-spot... Anyway, does anybody know any trick how to get them white again? I wear them with a blue dress, so they still look like white, but it would be so nice to have them really white again. Any ideas?
