Pour salt on the stain. Then cut a lemon into quarters and squeeze the juices over the salt on the rust stain.

Lay it outside until it dries. Brush off the salt.
Put the rust stained fabric on a towel.

Pour an enzyme laundry detergent on the rust stain.
Rub the detergent into the fibers of the fabric.

Launder according to garment directions or as usual.

I had two small rust spots on a white cotton sweater. I used Bar Keeper's liquid cleaner on it. I dabbed it on and let it sit a day and then laundered as usual.

It didn't harm the fabric and completely removed the stain.
