I considered bleach but feared that it would cause the yellow to fade. I used a copious amount of spray and wash and a small amount of detergent. I washed it alone using a gentle spin cycle with cold water. I then placed it between linen and used a marble roller to remove the excess water. I used an iron to press and dry it so that it would not lose size when it dried. It was a lot of work for such an inexpensive item.

Wow! I'm surprised it's even brighter! Do you think it was owned by a smoker?
