Washing Vatanai

How do I wash this wrap?  We were at the inlaws this weekend and it is heavily contaminated with smoke residue.  FIL smokes, but not around me or the baby, it's about to make me gag just being in the same room with it right now.  Any special care instructions I should know?  I couldn't find it with a quick google search..

  • I do a handwash in the bathtub with mild soap, then I'll use the rinse cycle of the washer to get all of the soap out, and then it gets hung up to dry.  After it's completely dry I'll toss it in the dryer for 10 minutes or so get give it the extra soft snuggly feeling :)

  • I always threw it in the wash, gentle cycle or normal cycle, warm water and then tumble dry on low.

    ^^WSS, except I use cold water.  I have a baby and a 4 year old, no time to baby my wraps =)  My children and myself are the only things that get hand washed around here, LOL.

    I would say, that I only use a tiny bit of detergent and I never use the free & clear kind (which leave residue)... basically, anything cloth diapers shouldn't be washed with, I avoid when washing my wraps. 

    Are you enjoying your vat?
