I hand wash things like silk knit tops bras wool sweaters and such.
I wash one at a time in the bathroom basin, using baby shampoo....let it soak then jounce up and down for a minute or so...drain, fill, jounce some more, repeat...drain squeeze out ( don't wring) wrap in a towel and squeeze and if it's something stretchy like a sweater, lay it on another towel on a flat surface....the bath tub works for me because I have a stall shower.
If the item is something that won't stretch I hang it on a hangar and put it on the shower head to drip....then on a hook by the heat/airconditioning vent.

Lindac, thanks for the reply! I think it's the *wrap in a towel and squeeze* step that i didn't do. Next time i'll do that, it should eliminate alot of the dripping.Also, never thought about the baby shampoo...was just using regular laundry det. The baby shampoo would be alot kinder to the clothes.

Thanks again!
