You're washing your sweaters without doing this first.
洗毛衣前没有先翻面

 

According to CottonWorks, you should always wash your sweaters inside out to prevent pilling. The rubbing that occurs during washing can cause textiles like wool and cotton to rub against each other and bunch up, creating unsightly pills. In fact, if you looked at wool fibers under a microscope, you'd see that they're actually covered in tiny scales. These scales can catch on each other and cause pilling, so flip your sweaters inside out before cleaning them.

CottonWorks网站称,你应该总是将毛衣反面洗涤,防止起球。清洗时的摩擦会让羊毛、棉等面料的织物互相摩擦产生难看的毛球。事实上,如果你用显微镜来看羊毛纤维,你会看到纤维实际上被小鳞片覆盖。这些鳞片会彼此纠结在一起,起球就是这么产生的。所以在洗毛衣前记得先翻面。

pilling['pɪlɪŋ]: n. 起毛粒,起球

 

You toss your bathing suit in the dryer.
将泳衣放入烘干机内

 

As a general rule, lace, silk, and beaded fabrics should stay out of the dryer and be laid flat to dry on a rack. The elasticity of swimwear can also be destroyed by heat, so dry your bathing suit on a rack as well. Hand-washing delicate items like bras and underwear is best, but you can also place them in a mesh laundry bag that will protect them from tangles and tears in the washing machine.

一般情况下,蕾丝、丝绸和缀珠面料都不能放入烘干机,而应该平摊放在架子上晾干。泳衣的弹性会因受热而损坏,因此泳衣也应该放在晾衣架上晾干。文胸、内衣等娇贵服饰最好是手洗,但你也可以将它们放在网眼洗衣袋中机洗,保护这些衣服不被撕坏或缠绕在一起。

 

You're using the wrong kind of detergent.
用的洗衣液(洗衣粉)不合适

 

If you have a HE (High Efficiency) washing machine, you need to use the right kind of laundry soap. These types of washing machines use less energy and water to get your clothes clean, so they work best with low-sudsing HE detergent.

如果你有一台高效洗衣机,你需要使用正确的洗衣产品。这类洗衣机更节能省水,所以最好和低泡高效洗衣液结合使用。

According to The Spruce, using conventional detergent in a HE machine can actually stop your clothes from being thoroughly cleaned and might result in detergent residue in your garments. Look for the HE logo on the detergent bottle to be sure you're using the best product for your clothes and machine.

The Spruce网站称,事实上在高效洗衣机里用传统洗衣液会阻止衣服被彻底清洁,可能会导致衣服内有洗衣液残留物。选购那些瓶子上有高效标志的洗衣液,确保你用的洗衣产品适合你的衣服和洗衣机。
