Cleaning Hardnger
by: Yvonne

If the pieces are cotton just wash normally in warm water using a pure soap detergent, roll in a clean light coloured, preferably white, towel until almst dry then iron, face down, on a fluffy towel. I have washed a fifty year old embroidered tablecloth in this was without any problem so I cannot see that Hardanger will be any different.
