What You Need to Get Started
- Paper towels
- Coldwater
- Mild detergent
- White vinegar
- Rubbing alcohol
- Oxygen-based bleach
Step 1: Blot the Stain
The first thing you need to do is blot up as much soy sauce as possible with a paper towel. Be sure to not rub the stain, as this will only spread it further. Don’t scrub it either, as this can damage delicate Irish crochet.
Step 2: Pretreat With Detergent and Cold Water
Mix together one tablespoon of mild detergent and two cups of cold water. Gently dab mixture onto the soy sauce stain. Allow it to sit for a few minutes before rinsing with cold water.
Step 3: For Stubborn Stains: White Vinegar and Rubbing Alcohol
For more stubborn stains, mix together equal parts rubbing alcohol and white vinegar. Gently dab mixture onto the stain, then rinse with cold water. If the stain persists, repeat the process until the stain is removed.
Step 4: Oxygen-Based Bleach
If the above steps fail to remove the stain, try using an oxygen-based bleach. Mix together a cup of bleach and two gallons of cold water. Soak the fabric overnight in this mixture before washing as normal.
Conclusion
Removing soy sauce stains from Irish crochet can be a tricky task but it is possible. Just follow the steps given above and you should have no trouble eliminating even the most stubborn stain. Good luck!
