Laundry Tips for Washing Clothes During Winters

 


We all cherish the feeling of having hot chocolate while snuggled in our blankets during the colder winter months. But doing laundry in winters is a real mood killer. Winters might be relatively short but it’s crucial to take necessary precautions while taking care of our woollens.

Have you ever experienced the pain when your top load washing machine or semi-automatic washing machine shrunk your favorite sweater? We all have struggled to maintain our new sweaters and mittens. Top load fully automatic washing machines are a bliss but sometimes it drops off the woollens.

 


Take a look at these simple laundry tips to easily maintain your woollens and extend their shelf life:

  1. Read the labels on the clothes before washing them. Labels clearly mention which method is perfect to ensure a long life for your fabric. If you’re using a top load fully automatic washing machine, utilize the delicate water cycle for gentle and fragile fabrics. Sturdy fabrics such as denim, however, can be washed using the normal settings of your top load washing machine and you don’t need to worry about them

 

  1. Say yes to messy laundry bags. If you already know this hack, it must have saved your lingerie from any snags. Just to give your delicates extra care, you can even consider getting mesh laundry bags and use them in your semi-automatic washing machines.




  2. If you have a Panasonic dryer washer, it’s auto tub clean feature consequently cleans the tub after each wash cycle, preventing the gunk of detergent residues that’s responsible for foul odour from your laundry.

  3. Washing your clothes inside out extends the life of clothes. Embroidery, embellishments, sequins on the dresses can be saved from falling off. This way, inside of the dresses can take the brunt of the washing action of your semi-automatic washing machine and keep your clothes in good shape

  4. Using cold water while washing will prevent shrinkage of the natural fabric. It’s a great tip if your cotton dresses shrink after a few washes.

 




  1. Stacking all your dresses and putting them together in your top load washing machine sure sounds convenient. However, there’s limited daylight during winters and every fabric has unique laundry rules. Washing them all may hamper the quality of your dresses. Some top load fully automatic washing machines have an alternate setting, and it is recommended to use these settings during this time. Clothes can be segregated and washed independently to preserve their condition. Segregation and classification is the best way to wash winter garments.





  2. Another important factor is how you store your winter clothes. Winter clothes need to be stored with essential care to prevent insect attacks and foul odour. Otherwise, winter clothes can be kept in plastic or paper packs to prevent any damage.

Woolens require a lot of care and they may take more time to launder and dry. The shelf life of these clothes can be extended through a defined usage. Incorrect methods may hamper the fabric of sweaters and covers. With these above-mentioned tips, your woollens will be cheerful and have an extended life!
