Today is laundry day over at the Kreinik blog. You can learn about washing Kreinik and ironing it safely. The blog doesn't mention using flat irons for hair to straighten out the curls Kreinik's metallics have from being on spools but I know quite a few folks who have done this successfully so it should be safe.

By the way, the two threads Kreinik says may run when washed are red and blue. I was curious and looked it up.
