All blankets, bedspreads, and quilts need to be washed periodically. If you have a large family, you should definitely have several large blankets.
You shouldn't wash bulky items in a washing machine, because the drum won't be able to handle them. And a large blanket won't fit if your washing machine is small.
You will have to wash it by hand.
Details
To avoid overloading the washing machine, you should wash a large blanket or blanket by hand. Yes, washing by hand is much more difficult, but it is worth taking care of your equipment so that it does not break down. It is not news that stuffing a full drum of a washing machine is a harmful action that should not be done.
You can wash a large blanket by hand in the bathroom.
First, fill the bathtub with warm water and add the rinse gel. You will rinse better with the gel because it dissolves better.
Once the bathtub is full of water, soak the blanket for a few hours. If the item is very dirty, change the water.
Take off your shoes, stand in the bathtub, and tread the blanket in the water. Turn it over at least once during this procedure.
The next stage of washing is rinsing. Drain the water in which you washed the blanket. Pour clean water, while carefully stepping on it with your feet.
And the last stage is wringing. Roll the blanket into a roll, or fold it several times. Squeeze to drain the water. Hang the blanket on the edge of the bathtub to drain the water. When most of the water has drained, send your blanket to dry.
