inside out clothes

russetred

A friend of mine asked me why all my clothes were inside out as I was hanging them on the line.You know I always thought everyone does this.It keeps your clothes from fading and they last longer then.Tell me I'm not alone!

No your not alone, OH always insists i turn things inside out when i'm pegging out, and comes out and turns it if don't. Serves her right, letting a bloke peg out!

My oh wears a lot of t-shirt with prints on them and i always turn them inside out to wash them and to iron them to. Stops them peeling.

No you are not alone. It also keep the peg marks inside if the line needs a clean!

I wash em however they come off me! inside out or the right way, whichever

I always wash all clothes inside out,all zips must be done up,all buttons undone! I peg everything out inside out and iron on the 'wrong' side.
I thought everyone did this? maybe I'm very fussy about my laundry,probably why my mother stopped doing it for me when I was just 9 eek!

Clothes with pockets also dry quicker if pegged on the clothes line inside out.

I prefer to wash stuff inside out, especially the darker clothing - ironing too (if I ever do any)

I wash them as they come off the person but turn them right side out on the line (just to be different I guess) as I have messy children and this gives the sun a chance to bleach out any stains the washing powder has missed. Rather clean and faded, than bright but stained in my book!

Mostly inside out cos then if I leave a tissue in the wash (you'd think I'd have learned by now but oh no) it's mostly stuck to the inside of the clothes rather than the outside

They dont get so many "bits" on them or start rubbing if you turn them inside out to wash. Dont fade so much when you iron.

You are not alone.
