| CARE AND WASHING |
|
|
Our fabrics have a great
reputation for their colorfastness when cared for properly. A chemical bond has
occurred between fibers and dye molecules in the dyeing process, causing the
colors to retain their strength through time and washings. However, some
precautions should be taken to ensure that all unattached molecules have been
removed. We've run them through two hot washes in a Synthrapol bath, but
considering how saturated these fabrics are with color, it is entirely likely
that some of those floating molecules need an additional rinse. We encourage
you to prewash all of your Cherrywoods in a hot water wash with synthrapol,
no chlorine products, followed by a check for any color in the rinse water. A
second wash may be necessary. Two tablespoons of Synthrapol in the washload
will give the wash a boost as well as helping to keep those released dyes from
reattaching onto other fabrics. Use it with all of your cottons and rayons both
before and after you've sewn them up.
