tips

When you steam iron woollen fabrics, shiny patches may occur. To

prevent this, use a dry pressing cloth or turn the article inside out and

iron the reverse side.

Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric

to prevent shiny patches.

Iron velvet and other fabrics that tend to acquire shiny patches in one

direction only (along with the nap) while you apply very little pressure.

Do not use steam when you iron coloured silk. This could cause stains.
