FABRIC HINTS

Always check garment care labels for the manufacturer's recommendation
Blankets
Extract most of the water from the blanket before drying.
•
Place 2 to 3 towels in the Dryer and allow the Dryer to pre-heat for 10 minutes on a
•
HOT setting.
Switch to the WARM setting before placing the blanket in the Dryer.
•
Remove the blanket while it is still slightly damp.
•
Reshape and hang out to dry.
•
When dry, brush to raise the nap and press the binding with a warm iron.
•
Cotton T-shirts and Knit underwear
Dry only to a slightly damp stage. If these articles are allowed to tumble too long, the
•
knitted cotton may shrink. This may be corrected by re-dampening or by wearing the
article.

Iron and hang immediately.
