      You probably could, but IMO that’s an excessive amount of borax in the recipe. Most washing mixes only use a tiny amount of borax, it’s mostly soap/detergent and sodium carbonate (washing soda)

      In my experience, yes. HOWEVER, I’m one of those “welcome to the laundry gauntlet” type people. I do not care for my clothes the way I should. Everything just get washed with little regard, unless it’s something hand made crochet or knit. But I’ve never noticed any bleaching or white spots.
