I'm trying to decide between the Rasin and the Basmati - can you tell me anything about how the Basmati wears -- will it turn grey after a washing or 3?

I have a covert in both the raisin and basmati, and both wash well. I wash mine turning them inside out in cold water on delicate cycle with a mild detergent without fabric softener, and then, I let them line (air) dry. I have not had a problem with any of the colors fading or graying. Oddly, I bought a Delta Lt Zip in basmati, and it actually was a completely different color (it was light gray to start) than the covert. I ended up returning it because of the color. The raisin color is nicer than what it appears on the website. The basmati is nice too, but it picks up and shows dirt easily.
