fabric care label directions carefully. I_

Some item!;; hold more moisture than others (cotlons more than polyester). They take I :)nger to dry. Full loads take longer to dr!r than small loads of the same fabric.

A load rinslt~d in cold water will take slightly lon!;ier to dry than a warm one. Cold rinses, however, help save energy and reduce wrinkling more than warm rinses do.
