Short Cuts Laundry and Potatoes Care Tips
Woolen fabrics like cotton and rayon blends require careful handling when wet. Do not rub or wring. Rinse in soap suds, squeeze gently, and hang to dry in a cool place. Press on the wrong side with a warm iron. When boiling potatoes ensure a roomy pot so they can move without bumping or bruising.
