I did a load of laundry with two new shirts in it. Unfortunately, the dye from one transferred to part of another - the second shirt is colorblock and it just transferred to the white section which is now a pretty shade of light blue.
I actually don't mind how the colorblock shirt now looks! I just have to figure out what to do.
Is there any way to remove the color so it goes back totally to white? I would either want it back to the original, or to stay the way it is now, but not somewhere in between where it will just look like an odd white-ish color.
Or, is there a way to ensure that the color that transferred remains in the second shirt entirely?
Thank you

Nothing can guarantee that the shirt will look the way it did before; I would leave it as is. I used RIT Color Remover when color bled from stripes of one color onto stripes of another color. It successfully stripped the color, but what started out as red, blue and white stripes ended up as orange, rust and white stripes. It looked fine if you like those colors. Too bad I don't.

Thanks, maybe I'll just leave it.

That's what I would do. You risk ruining the shirt otherwise. Color remover requires hot water if I'm not mistaken.
