The Best Way To Wash Clothes With Buttons To Avoid A Laundry Disaster
By RHIANNON FAITH IRELAND
Buttoning your shirts before washing them can cause issues like snagging or loose threads, and could even tear both the item in question and your other clothes.
When buttonholes are exposed to constant tugging and pulling from the movement of the washing machine, they stretch out, leaving room for other items to get stuck in them.
