How do you wash silk?

If you use the delicate cycle put it in a pillow case. Use woolite. Put it in the dryer WITH the pillow case till the pillow case is almost dry (not including the knot)..Take them out of the case right away. and let them finish drying on a hanger.

As long as you use cold water and a special detergent like Woolite or Victoria's Secret Silk Wash (or whatever it's called) and protect the pj's in a net bag or pillowcase, I think you'd be safe using the delicate setting on your washing machine. But what's the big deal about washing them by hand?

Whichever you choose to do, dry them by hanging them up out of direct sunlight to preserve the color.

follow the instruction if they did not mean what they put on the little tag then they would not put it on
