Dear native speakers, What do you call a "phenomenon" when you've washed white clothes let's say with a pair of dark blue jeans and when the washing is over the white clothes became light blue.... Can I say my white clothes got dyed in light blue because of the jeans? or should there be used another phrase ? Thanks.

The blue (of the jeans) bled into the whites. You can use the verb "bleed" this way. CJ
