For the big wash – separate bags.

Coloureds, whites, wool, synthetics: here are the bags –of unbleached, sturdy cotton (weight of material 285g/sq.m.), with support struts of local larch-wood, made for us by a firm near Munster, north-west Germany. They'll sort your things out and keep them separate on wash-day. They're both practical and good-looking. Each bag is big enough for one machine wash. They can be taken off the criss-cross supports to be washed (at 60°C) and are provided with loops for easy carrying.
