UGH we bought them at targets and I've washed them 4 times and the dye still comes off on our skin...any suggestions?

You got something you need to return. I have flannel sheets for years and no problems

i would try returning them, that is a total nuisance.

Trade them in on Satin sheets, I thought they were sissy until my wife talked me into trying them and now I LOVE IT!

You can wash them in hot water to remove the excess dye, and then wash with vinegar to fix the dye.
Or there are commercially available dye fixatives like RIT that may help.

I was going to suggest vinegar, paints already did

I honestly dont know if it works, but Ive heard that it does

Keep washing them until most of the dye is gone.

Yea, I love satin sheets too, so cool and feels so good against the skin!!

I love flannel sheets in the winter. But with all you have done and still a dye problem I would take them back.

I heard the vinegar trick as well. There's a shirt I want amazon that, according to reviews, does the same thing and someone suggested vinegar. Although satin sheets do sound very nice

My husband gave me plaid flannel sheets in 2014 for Christmas, and I don't think they've been off the bed since, except for washing! We love them. So comfortable. I have never had any trouble with the dye running or coming off. I hope you can trade yours in for a set that is satisfactory!
