>> Piffle yerself, Diarmaid.

>> You can bleach the whole thing and re-dye it, as that M/d guy suggested.
>> If you do, however, do NOT just soak the garment in straight bleach.
>> Dilute it and take your time getting the dye out.  Straight bleach can

>> weakened.  Laundry bleach is a solution of lye treated with chlorine gas.
>> It's not as caustic as the lye in drain cleaner or that you make soap
>> with, but it's pretty stern stuff.
>>
>> After bleaching, launder the garment in hot water with a good detergent a
>> few times before dyeing, to be sure you get all traces of bleach out of
>> the garment, or it will intefere with the new dye.

>> Alternatively, Rit makes a dye-stripper called "Color Remover."  It may
>> not take all the dye out, and there is a chance that, once you re-dye the
>> garment, the bleached area will take up the new dye differently than the
>> rest of the garment.
