Washing:

You can wash your linen linens by machine at hot temperature, up to 60˙ C. In the past, housewives used to boil water for washing their linen sheets, but when the fabric has been dyed, it is required to wash at lower temperature to preserve the colors. Pure linen is stronger that any other fabric such cotton and it will become softer and stronger over many washes.

Bleaching:

Never use bleach as it’s destroying the fiber very quickly.

Drying:

If you don’t have any other way to have your linens dry, such on a clothesline, use dryer on a low heat and delicate setting. Think about all the lint you collect after drying cloths by electric dryer. It tends to reduce the life of you linens by breaking natural fibers causing premature wearing.

Use only gentle liquid detergent, no washing powder or harsh detergent, and never keep it directly in the drum of your machine to avoid concentration that would cause discoloration or white stains.
