    congrats! :-) rubber gloved hand rubbing on the fabric usually works for cat hair, not sure about tissue fibre but worth a try? or a rubbter bristle brush if you have one :-)

    Get a Sticky Lint Roller !

    Most of the £1 and 99P shops stock them, works a treat !
  • I left a tissue in a fine knit cardi last week. Grr
    I took it outside and brushed it with the brush from a dustpan set.
    It did a good job.

    CONGRATULATIONS on the new bundle.

    I'd go for the tumble dryer as it's worked for me with tissue in pockets. & congratulations!

  • Thank you for all the suggestions - the tumble dryer seems to have helped on most of the items - the rest will have to have the 'sticky' tape or roller idea!! I'm not too sure how the stuff on the washing line has fared - it's still raining so they can take their chances out there!! :p

    And thank you for the congratulations too xx :D

    My son has managed to wash his bag, with a card liner in the same wash as his clothes. Does anybody have any idea how to get the debris out of jumpers? I have rinsed them and dried them and banged them but it's still sticking!

    Thanks

    running stuff through the TD removes tissue - maybe that would work?
