Washing and Care

All clothings will have care instructions on tags.  Cyano types or Tie Dye instructions below.

 

Wash as little as possible.

Washing by hand is best.

When machine washing is desired, use cold water and liquid detergent on gentle settings.

Do NOT use a detergent containing bleach or sodium. Do not use powdered detergents. Here is a list of suitable detergents (click to purchase):

ECOMAX Concentrated Hypoallergenic Laundry Detergent, Dr. Bronner’s - Pure-Castile Liquid Soap, Biokleen Natural Laundry Detergent Liquid

Before washing, turn the garment inside-out to insure the cyanotype will not be affected by residue left behind in machine.

Dissolve detergent in water before adding to washing machine.

Air dry on low heat

To restore vibrancy to a faded garment, soak in a dilute bath of 3% hydrogen peroxide to 97% water for 1/2 hour.
