Care
Silk is a delicate and luxurious fabric that requires special care to maintain its quality and shine. Here are some care instructions for your silk blanket, including how to use white distilled vinegar:
-
Hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle with a gentle detergent specifically designed for silk. Avoid using bleach or fabric softener as they can damage the fabric.
-
Rinse the blanket thoroughly with cold water to remove all soap residue.
-
To brighten and soften the silk, add one cup of white distilled vinegar to the rinse cycle. The vinegar helps to remove any remaining soap residue and restores the natural shine of the silk.
-
After the rinse cycle, gently squeeze out any excess water. Do not wring or twist the fabric as this can cause damage.
-
Hang the blanket to dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Do not use a dryer as the heat can damage the silk.
-
If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and place a pressing cloth over the silk to protect it from direct heat.
By following these care instructions, you can keep your silk blanket looking and feeling soft and luxurious for years to come.
