Caring for 100% cotton clothes is easier than what most people think of. When hand washing is not an option, the delicate cycle on your machine is preferred. The use of cold water is recommended. If you feel you must, then warm water but never hot water unless you intend to have the cotton item to shrink. Also always turn the cloths inside out to protect the outer side when washing. When drying on a clothes line outside keep the cloths turned inside out. This will prevent the sun from fading the fabric
