To Wash Sweaters.

The popularity of the sweater is easily accounted for in its usefulness and comfort, but it often loses its attractiveness in becoming shapeless after washing. If properly washed a sweater should keep its shape until it wears out, and therefore wash it carefully with some good white soap; rinse well and add some bluing to the last water if the garment is white. Then place it in a clean pillowcase and pin the case to the clothesline. When the sweater is nearly dry put It on a coat hanger In the sunshine.
