Perhaps we are imagining the wrong sort of nets ?

Errrm ... re hanging threads, I rather assume Frankie knows better than the rest of us whether these specific curtains actually have em or not!
I think we were assuming these were nylon nets or voiles, From what The Princess has said though, I fear they may be cotton nets. Which if they are need a jolly good hot wash and ditto iron, pref steam. Absolutely the opposite of what you do with the man made sort in fact.
Personally though in either case, I'd always machine wash even if hardly grubby at all because if you handwash, you wring or squeeze creases into them and you'll definitely have to iron them. Spin drying still causes creases but they are not quite as much like permanent pleats as when you handwash!
I hate and loathe to see crumpled nets, grrrrrr You often see that in England Frankie, utterly slovenly - make otherwise quite nice looking properties look more like a squat. That's one of the many reasons why I love France. French women always seem to have PRISTINE nets at their fenetres! And you have a far greater and better choice to buy .....
I'm not actually that struck on nets meself, TBH and wouldn't have em at all by choice but when we moved to a bungalow on a main road right by a bus stop and the bedroom's at the front - well ! LOL But they do have to be RIGHT. (we just couldn't afford vertical blinds)
Bon chance JJ !

Ok.. not often a mere man can upbeat a woman but...
Wash in a low temp wash ( as said ) but if you want that extra brilliant white look, soak them in a bucket with a dolly bag of blue ( come on ladies.. admit it !! You know you remember these ) http://www.oldandinteresting.com/laundry-blue.aspx
However, as I suspect dolly bags are gonna be bloody hard to get hold of with out a time machine, use Steradent ( no joke !! )
The best ever product since the demise of the little blue bag for net curtains to make them pure white is steradent tablets :thumb:
Rinse in cold water and hang out to dry
wait for his VIP to come

I wish to announce that a very special person has stated that she wishes to sew up the slightly damaged one first and then wash them herself...
... now...
If I go along with this plan... will it return to haunt me in later years? ... as in "You even made me wash and sew your net curtains you lazy, over weight, English pig"...
Please advise...
JJ :Cool:
