IRONING TIPS:
• Always iron with a lengthwise motion. Ironing in a circular
motion may stretch fabric.
• Natural fibers such as cotton and linen should be ironed
slightly damp for faster, easier ironing. If they are completely
dry, use maximum steam while ironing or mist them with
water prior to ironing.
• Any portion of a garment that has two layers of fabric such
as pockets, seams, collars, and cuffs should be ironed inside
out first.
• To press a collar, iron from the points in using small strokes
of the iron. After wrinkles are removed, crease the collar into
place by hand. Treat French cuffs similarly, gently creasing
by hand after ironing.
