I have to say that I didn't wash it before putting it on the bed and, since I really can't be doing with ironing a king-size cover, it'll just have to be creased. I think they suggested folding it while still slightly damp and said it shouldn't need ironing then. We'll see.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00822383355869390919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-8034060988124478062009-01-22T21:51:00.000+00:002009-01-22T21:51:00.000+00:00Those sheets are like those nasty 'waterproof matt...Those sheets are like those nasty 'waterproof mattress covers' they have in some 'lesser residential establishments' that crinkle in the night. <BR/><BR/>They are *hell* to iron, and the creases don't come out properly, even ironed damp. And I *never* normally need to iron sheets (life's too short). Maybe tumble dried they'd be OK, but I don't have a tumble drier (and consider them too energy wasterful to ever get one).<BR/><BR/>I have a suspcion that the rest of the parcel is going back - if I can find a way to return it that doesn't cost twenty quid.<BR/><BR/>Moral: never buy linen without seeing it first. I need to remind myself that if things are cheap, there's usually a reason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21602861.post-37019213753368008812009-01-20T15:44:00.000+00:002009-01-20T15:44:00.000+00:00Overseas packing is a bit of a killer for heavy st...Overseas packing is a bit of a killer for heavy stuff, sorry.<BR/><BR/>Glad the recommendation came at the right time, BW.<BR/><BR/>Dand, you'll love it.
