I've just purchased replacement slipcovers for my Ekescog (now Hovas) sofas from IKEA. I've had the white for 5+ years and simply bleach them. I wanted white for that reason, you can't bleach a pattern. The reason I've bought new ones is mine have just worn out with pets and people. I purchased 4 slipcovers so I can keep 2 white and I'll be dying 2 of them a medium gray when they arrive. If you can wait, I'll let you know how they turn out. I wrote to Rit for suggestions and they said to prewash and keep the slipcover damp/wet for the dye process. Because of the size of the slipcover I will need at least 2 packages for each cover and another 2 for all 4 cushion covers. My greatest concern is making sure I have equal and enough water in the washing machine for each batch. I am hoping for the best and ready to accept sufficient. Stay tuned.
