--Separate light and dark colored towels. Some bright and deep colors
can bleed even after several washings.
--Don’t wash towels with other laundry because even older towels can
coat other fabrics with a fine layer of lint. If you must wash them
together, turn the garment inside out.

lot faster. Use it only when absolutely necessary.
--Fabric softener will cause towels to be less absorbent. At the most,
use it every other washing.

develop, which can be difficult to remove.
--To keep towels smelling fresh while in the linen closet, slip a fabric
softner sheet between each towel.
