Re: [Killietalk] Best Yarn for mops?

[Pjeversman at aol_com]

I do not boil the mops.  If I want to clean them, I gather the loose  ends 
together with a rubber band (helps to keep them from tangling), and place  
several mops in a mesh sweater bag.  I then drop the bag into the washing  machine 
under the delicate cycle. I add some chlorine bleach, let the washer  fill 
with water and leave the lid up for awhile.  This turns it into an  extended soak 
cycle and lets the bleach work.  After 10-15 mnutes I put the  lid down and 
let the cycle finish.  I run it through another cycle with  just plain water 
(and no soaking) to get the bleach out.  I then hang them  to air dry.  They 
come out clean with no hideaway critters.
