We have a blanket in almost every house. We usually cover a bed or sofa.

But it happens that a soft and fluffy product loses its qualities after washing. For this reason, it is necessary to follow certain washing rules. 

Experienced housewives know that before washing, the blanket must first be cleaned of dust, wool and hair. For example, it can be vacuumed.

In addition, if there are any stains on things, then they are treated before putting the blanket in the drum of the washing machine.

A wet blanket will weigh 2-2.5 times more than a dry one. Not every technique can withstand such a load.

For this reason, it is recommended to wash only small items in this way, which can be placed in a special bag before the process.

It is better to choose a gentle mode. The temperature should not be higher than 30 degrees. 

Loose powders are poorly washed out of such fabrics, it is better to use liquid products.

If possible, experienced housewives completely turn off the spin. After the end of washing, it is advisable to rinse the blanket twice.

As for hand washing, there is also a certain set of rules.

In the bath you need to collect warm water, in which you need to dissolve the liquid powder. In this solution, it is recommended to leave the blanket for 10 minutes. It is advisable to rinse the product several times. 

After the wet cloth is rolled up and left in the bathroom for half an hour.

It is necessary to dry the blanket on a horizontal surface with good ventilation. If the material is hung, it will simply stretch.
