Knitted g a fo ments and fabrics have a greater tendency to change shape dur ing cleaning than woven ones. This is due largely to the; fact, that knitted materials can stretch in one direction and at the same time ' shrink in the other.. Also, knitted . clothes are likely to lose their shape ddring wear. For this reason they require frequent cleaning and blocking to restore them to their . original shape and dimensions. This is true ' of fabrics and garments knitted of wool, cotton, rayon, ny lon and combinations pf yarns. With knitted materials, as with . all fabrics, your cleaner must ' analyze the' yarn fibers to deter- . mine just which cleaning compound to use. Blocking and finishing of knitted clothes takes special skill, . too. ' ' You can trust your knitted gar ments to' us, and know that they are in capable, responsible hands .. . . that they will be painstakingly handled during cleaning, blocking and finishing . . . and returned to you impeccably clean and new looking.
