Knit fabrics are usually manufactured under tension (stretching). Cotton knits
especially may relax or draw together if every bit of moisture is removed from
them. It is best to take them out of the dryer with a trace of moisture remaining,
then stretch to shape. If they do shrink from overdrying, rewet them and dry
properly.
REGULAR heat. Remove slightly damp to minimize ironing. Reshape, smooth
seams and pockets, etc. This is especially important for blue jeans and
corduroys.
REGULAR or PERMANENT PRESS/KNIT heat. Turn inside out to prevent
"pilling" (the rolling up of the fiber ends from friction). Dry sweaters only with
similar things because they tend to attract lint. Make sure the load is large
enough for tumbling. Dry completely and remove from dryer immediately to
minimize wrinkling.
DELICATE heat. For wool labeled "machine washable", follow manufacturer's
directions. For other wool, use wool blanket method. Do not dryer dry loosely
knit wool or hand knits. Dry these flat and stretch to shape from a pattern
drawn before washing.
Make sure the filling and covering are washable and can be dryer dried.
Cotton filling may become lumpy. Protect glass eyes by covedng with a
stocking or tie toy into a pillowcase. Choose heat for most sensitive fiber. Dry
enough clothes in the load for good tumbling. DO NOT DRY TOYS STUFFED
WITH FOAM RUBBER OR KAPOK IN THE DRYER WITH HEAT.
