Things You'll Need:
- Washing machine
- Laundry detergent designed for cold water
- Dryer
-
Step 1
Check the tag on your fleece clothing to make sure there are no special instructions. Most fleece fabrics can be washed in the same way, but check the tag to make sure.
-
Step 2
Put your fleece in the washing machine with other similar colors; wash darks and lights separately.
-
Step 3
Set your washing machine to the cold setting and add the appropriate amount of laundry detergent. Use a detergent formulated for cold water to get your fleece fabric as clean as possible.
-
Step 4
Do not add bleach or fabric softeners to the washing machine.
-
Step 5
Set the washing machine to its normal cycle and remove the fleece when the cycle has ended.
-
Step 6
Air-dry your fleece or put it in the dryer on a low tumble setting. Fleece fabrics will dry very quickly, so air-drying should not take more than three or four hours. Do not dry your fleece on high heat in the dryer, as the heat can cause shrinkage.
-
Step 7
Do not iron your fleece. Fleece fabrics avoid wrinkles very well, and the high heat of an iron can damage the fabric.
