Abstract: A dye scavenging article is provided for use in scavenging extraneous random dyes from the wash and rinse waters during a laundry process. The dye scavenging article is constructed to prevent its being trapped or commingled with the clothing items by including a buoyant or floatation member. A stiffening member may also be provided which maintains the dye scavenging article in an open state during the washing process. This construction allows the dye scavenging article to be exposed to the entire volume of wash and rinse waters during the laundry process to enhance effectiveness.
