Guest guest Posted June 12, 2005 Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 OK, this is really annoying me... My mom's trying to teach me how to iron clothes. Yes, that's right, I never knew how until-- well, I'm 22, but I still don't know how, despite my mom's best efforts to teach me. It's just not sticking in my mind. I've been ironing for several weeks now, but every time, without fail, I have to ask my mom what order to press the parts of the shirt/pants, because I honestly haven't even the slightest clue where to start. And I also can't remember how things go-- do you lay the garment flat on the board, do you wrap it around the board, which way does it hang, yada yada yada? And before anyone says, take the clothes out of the dryer as soon as possible so they don't get wrinkled... oh, they're already well wrinkled before they even leave the dryer. The only thing I can think of is that possibly 60 minutes is way too long to set the dryer on and that I need to go to a shorter drying cycle... or possibly that I'm not using the right heat setting, one of the two. So... Anyone else here who has successfully learned how to either iron clothes or avoid doing so, could you share your secrets? This is really beginning to frustrate me, and I don't want to go off to graduate school too frustrated. -- Cody B. / " codeman38 " cody@... http://www.zone38.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
