skirt elastic, not too bad... well, the channel in one really cheap skirt is unstitching itself, but the elastic is pretty OK.
On another hand, has anyone else had inexpensive sweat pants suddenly start "burning up" the waist elastic in the dryer, and stinking up the whole dryer-ful something awful? My 19yo is NOT a clothes-horse, typical teen who wears pretty much all black, and his staple 3 pair of cheap black sweat pants started doing this a couple of months ago! I have finally decided those pants do not EVER go in the dryer again! I'm line-drying them now, and that's working. But it sure was a pain figuring it out! (I only do about one cold wash a week, so it took me a while to work through a couple of possible solutions. chimene On May 20, 2012, at 1:55 PM, Lavolta Press wrote: > If we can whine about how things ain't like they usta be, has anyone else > noticed that most elastic does not last as long as it used to?
