I have a long black jean skirt made of 78% cotton, 20% polyester, and 2% spandex. I bought this skirt 2 years ago and to this day it still bleeds, I just need to rub my hand over it and my hand turns black. I don't like to wear it because I never know if I leave marks on furniture, etc. It's most comfortable and I would love to wear it again!
I have washed it numerous times, each time by hand. I've also tried washing it with vinegar and it doesn't seem to help. I've more or less given up, so I would really appreciate some advice as to let me know what else I can try to make it stop once and for all.
Thank you.

I found some information on two websites that might help you out.
Have you tried soaking it overnight in a salt and hot water solution? (1 cup salt to 1 gallon hot from the tap water) Or try washing it by itself with at least 2 Shout Color Catcher Sheets, available in the laundry aisle at the supermarket.
