year's .fashions.
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
