Washing Woolens With Care Advice
Washing woolens can succeed with luke warm water short washing time and mild soap. Hot water agitation and alkali cause shrinking and felting. Follow manufacturer's directions but note woolens are unpredictable and water alone may shrink them.
Cutting Selvage Edges For Glass Curtain Hemming
When making glass curtains cut off the selvage edges before hemming. Selvage is tightly woven and tends to shrink more in washing than the curtain body, causing puckery edges after laundering.
Vinegar Tip Aids Bright Rib Bons Rinse Water
Add a tablespoon of vinegar to the first rinse water after washing rib bons to keep colors bright and prevent dulling. The acid helps set color and improves overall appearance.
