LAUNDER: cold water...after pre treating any stains. Use a mild soap, like Woolite or a baby soap. Others will leave a residue of soap on the fabric.
DRYING: Do not drape over a rod orclothesline, to dry. Dry flat(trampoline with a sheet laid down 1st works) or in a dryer on medium heat.
STORE: in an old pillow case or sheet, not a plastic bag!!
Plastic does not breathe and the fabric will rot.
