How to iron a skirt properly

For thin, thick, tall and low, for girls with slender legs and vice versa.

Stitches should not be strongly tightened, as it is possible to spoil a skirt. Threads from the skirt should be removed only after ironing.

If the skirt is silk, it should be ironed only from the wrong side. Knitwear should be steamed through wet gauze. Silk jersey is only ironed when there is an urgent need, just like silk (natural or piece).

Taking out the skirt from the stocking, you will see for yourself that it is easier to iron the ironing, but if there are already circumstances, follow the ironing rules mentioned above. Some housewives say that putting a skirt in a basin with a soapy solution, you can also simplify the work with ironing, but you still need to apply stitches to the skirt before washing. Or, if you are washing in a typewriter, you need to wash in a gentle mode.
