First test a scrap of fabric for shrinkage or running of color. Measure and then wash the fabric scrap in lukewarm water and milk pure soap. Note any color running from the fabric. Rinse well, then let dry. Measure to test for shrinkage. If none has occurred, then it is safe to wash the garment. If color runs, wash separately. Wash the garment as you did the fabric scrap, in pure soap and lukewarm water. Squeeze the suds through the garment and rinse well. Roll in a towel to squeeze out ex- cess water, then iron immediately. If you can't iron right away, roll in a se- cond towel until you are ready to press. Iron while still damp on low heat setting on the wrong side of the fabric. If you have a fabric scrap available for testing, test for running of color in an in- conspicuous place, such as an inside seam allowance, the bottom edge of a tuck -in blouse, or a tie belt. Most manufacturers today use a water spot resistant finish on silk, but untreated silk can be easily water -spotted. Test for water spotting by sprinkling water on a.fabric scrap. I.et dry. If fabric does water spot, protect the fabric with a press cloth when ironing, and never press using a steam iron. Anti-perspirants also yellow silk and these stains are difficult, if not impossible to remove. "Rather than using an anti-perspirant, use a deodorant, which will ;i ain silk," she says. h PETE'S TV 10 days of savings on the brightest' ' ideas in sight and sound - just in time for Christmas!
