You don't say what kind of ink. If it's ball-point pen ink, try Spray
or sponge with drycleaning solvent (perchloroethylene,
trichloroethylene) then rub with heavy-duty liquid detergent before
washing.

That's from http://ohioline.osu.edu/outside/stainrem.html#rsfwf which
looks like a good reference site.

I have called the Ag Extension office of the State Department of
Agriculture to ask a home economist how to deal with problems, too.
They have lots of free and inexpensive publications, too, if I get to
their office. They do some trades with other states, and with federal
publications, many of which are useful.

I've been known to forget a pen in my pocket a time or two and had the
great fun of washing it. That's why I keep a bottle of hairspray in my
laundering room. Works great on polyester.
