Yellowed Woollies
Dear Aunt Daisy, I feel this is too good a hint for you to miss. To bring knitted woollies that have gone yellow back to their original cream or white, try this. Wash as usual, and while still wet, hang over some lines in a very small room-say a bathroom. Then place some burning paper or hot coals on a fire shovel, and put a.teaspoonful of sulphur on to burn. Leave this for one hour in the’ little room. Then*dry as usual. I dried mine in the open to get the smell of sulphur out. I hope this. will. help someone as it —
helped me.-
Well-Wisher
