 here is what we use for laundry soap on our clothes and the cloth diapers:

1/4 cup washing soda

1/4 cup borax

1/4 cup salt

4 oz white vinegar (the orginal recipe said 2 oz, but i like 4 oz better cuz they smell so clean and fresh)

i have omitted the borax a few times cuz i had ran out and didnt realize it till it was too late, i didnt really see much difference.
