Should linen be washed or dry cleaned?

Question

Accepted Answer

Whether linen should be washed or dry cleaned depends on the specific item and its care instructions. Generally, most linen can be washed at home, but always check the care label first. For washable linen:  Machine Wash: Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach as it can damage the fibers.  Hand Wash: For delicate linen, hand wash with mild detergent in lukewarm water, gently agitating and rinsing thoroughly.  Drying: Air dry by laying flat or hanging on a line. If using a dryer, choose a low heat setting and remove while slightly damp to prevent wrinkles.  Ironing: Iron while damp on medium to high heat for best results.  For linen items labeled dry clean only or those that are delicate, heavily structured, or embellished, professional dry cleaning is recommended to prevent damage. Always follow the specific care instructions provided with your linen item.
