Troubleshooting
Pillowcase feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using the recommended washing temperature and avoiding harsh detergents. Fabric softener can be used sparingly if preferred. Ironing while slightly damp can also help restore softness.
Excessive wrinkling
Remove the pillowcase from the washing machine promptly and shake it out before drying. Line drying can sometimes reduce wrinkles better than tumble drying. Ironing on a medium heat setting while the fabric is still slightly damp is the most effective way to remove wrinkles.
Color fading
Wash inside out with similar colors and avoid direct sunlight when line drying. Use a detergent suitable for colored fabrics and avoid using bleach.
