I am Home Service Adviser for a Public Service Electric and Gas Company. From my experience, I think that all new electric blankets come with a sticker or tag attached which says, “DO NOT DRY CLEAN.” Washing is the ONLY safe way to keep electric bedding clean. In fact, it should be laundered often, before soil becomes imbedded in the fibers. If you are about to launder your first electric blanket, heed these simple rules: First, disconnect the control and shake the blanket to remove dust. Second, scrub soiled bindings lightly with a sudsy, soft brush and pretreat any stains that same way. Next, soak the entire blanket in cool suds for about ten minutes. Then-put it into clean suds - as warm as for a baby’s bath (only 100 degrees), wash and rinse it at the SAME temperature, using an adequate amount of soap or detergent and plenty of water. Avoid prolonged machine agitation or tumbling. Instructions usually suggest not more than three minutes of machine action. A SHORT spin cycle will remove most of the water and any remaining moisture can be gently pressed out by hand. NEVER put an electric blanket through a wringer. For hand-washing, use the bathtub which is large enough to immerse even a double blanket without crowding. Observe the same rules as to water temperature. Instead of rubbing, use a plumber’s plunger to “suck” the suds through the fabric. This loosens soil and eliminates lifting and squeezing the blanket. Manufacturers r e c o m m end draping an electric blanket over two parallel lines to dry, straightening the edges and corners. And remember this: electric blankets are permanently moth-proofed during manufacture and MUST NOT be given further anti-moth treatment. Fay Muzzy • * * • We truly thank Fay and all the other readers who responded to the question.
Let me add a couple of mor« ideas: To get most of the dust and loose dirt out of the blanket, vacuum it while it is still on the bed. Just run the vaccum wand over the blanket and it will suck most of the loose dust and lint out. I vacuum both sides. If the electric cord or socket hangs from the blanket after you disconnect the controls, securely tie a sock or rag around it. This will keep it from banging around in the washing machine. When granulated soap or detergent is used, be SURE it s all dissolved before putting in the blanket. Better to let your machine run a few minutes with the detergent water before putting your blanket in. Then you're positive. Some manufacturers say their blankets can be dried in an automatic dryer using moderate heat but the U. S. Government says DON’T put them in a dryer at all! So, follow the instructions for drying that came with your particular brand of blanket. If they are machine-dried, they should be taken out before they are completely dry to prevent shrinking, then air-dried. I brush mine lightly with a nylon hairbrush to fluff it up a bit after it’s dry and it looks ever so nice. Heloise • * • * Dear Heloise: My friend and I were discussing how to shorten a sheer jersery nightgown. I told her it was nearly impossible to turn a hem in a sheer jersey garment. She had the briglit idea of cutting off the hem that was on it and resewing it onto the gown after the required portion had been cut off. I tried it and it was a complete success with no stretching of the fabric. Successful Experiment • • * • Dear Heloise: While out at the cemetery gathering up my plastic flowers from a family gravesite, I noticed several nice bouquets and flowered crosses had been covered with plastic sacks and left for the winter.
