Washing Infants Dark Clothes With Light Colored Clothes?
28 December 2009
I just got a lot of infant and newborn clothing and I need to wash them before my daughter can wear them. Here is my question. Can I wash the darks with the lights? even whites? So far everything is 100% cotton. I have a couple of item that are mixed though. So can I wash them together and not have to worry about the colors bleeding? I don’t have many darks, so I hate to have to wash just such a small load. plus the clothes are really cute, and I don’t want to ruin any of the lighter colored clothes. Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!
you must treat the clothes the same as you would your own to keep the whites retain their brightness, wash separate from the dark.
If you have a small load then just use a low water setting on your washing machine. Wash dark colours separately from light colours and use very little soap.
Good luck.
wash in cold and rinse in cold…new clothes do not require any heat and only a dollop of soap
