Tissue + full load of laundry = fail

[yvi]

I think the subject line adequately describes what I have done at least 5 times in the last few weeks.

Another load of laundry with small white fluff all over it. Any tips on how to get rid of the stuff?

We use Scotch Fusselroller. It has sticky tape, and when it's used you can just remove one layer and then have a fresh next sticky layer. Works really well (better than the ones that you clean with water IMHO) and the stickyness is just right (not too strong, not too weak, and clothes friendly glue :o)

The most effect, however, has making it a fix part of your washing routine to check pockets for stuff before putting the laundry in the washing machine ;o)

Heh, yeah. But I think you might imagine why I was kind of tired and absent-minded when coming home and washing the holiday-laundry yesterday evening. So frustrated when I saw the mess I had made :/

It's amazing that you did the laundry at all right after your return. When we come home from travels, we usually only manage to unpack, washing won't start before the next weekend...

We basically cleaned the flat right before leaving, came back Monday and threw everything on the floor. But I can't relax very well when stuff is lying around, so I tidied and did the laundry right after coming back from the funeral, so I could relax for a few hours. While the boy cooked me dinner :)

And the laundry *was* pretty much the unpacking. Other than a few books everything we had with us needed to be thrown into the washing machine.
