    • Set the load size.

    • You can adjust this to whatever size load of laundry you are doing. Just be sure not to overload the washer, which not only is bad for your machine but creates additional wear on your clothes.

    • Not sure what overloaded is? Check the guidelines in your user manual. A good rule of thumb is to only fill your washer 2/3 full.

    • Set the water temperature on the washing machine to cold/cold.

    • Hot water can damage the fibers of your jeans and cause them to shrink. Never wash your jeans in hot water.

    • Start the washing machine on a gentle or normal wash cycle.

    • With the water running, pour in your laundry soap, following the instructions on the bottle.

    • Never pour laundry detergent directly on clothing; always pour it into the water. Pouring soap directly onto the clothes may cause discoloration.

    • We recommend Seventh Generation Free and Clear liquid laundry detergent.

    • After the washer has stopped, remove your jeans from the washing machine and take them out to your laundry line.

    • Never dry jeans in the dryer. The heat and tumbling can damage the fibers and shrink the jeans. Instead, hang your jeans up to dry using a laundry line, towel rack or even your shower head.

    • You'll want to leave your jeans inside out to prevent color fading as they dry.

    • Take one pant leg and fold the cuff over the line, overlapping the back side of the pant leg by a few inches.

    • Grab a clothespin and clip it in the middle of the pant leg, securing it to the laundry line.

    • Always place your clothespins vertically. Placing clothespins at an angle can cause warping in the clothes or can cause the clothespin to fall apart.

    • Take the second pant leg and fold the cuff over the line, as you did before. Space this cuff so that the jeans hang as flat as possible.

    • Apply a second clothespin to the middle of the second pant leg, catching the line between two layers.

    • Allow your pants to dry completely before removing the clothespins and taking them down.

    • To prevent your jeans from getting stiff, don't leave them out in the hot sun after they have dried. As soon as they are dry, take them down.
