How do you wash a 100% polyester faux fur blanket?
The care tag says machine wash and dry. After I did that, it turned nubby and "sticky" like acrylic. I googled it and found out you cannot dry polyester faux fur because heat destroys the fibers. So I returned it to the store and got a new one. This one I've only been line-drying and the softness has lasted longer, but now it's turning nubby again. What should I do?!
There is actually not much you can do. It's a synthetic material made from a mix of plastics and petroleum combined in such a way and then extruded through a form with tiny holes. It cannot be treated really as fabrics are. I usually shake them outside and use them like rugs, but washing them breaks the chemical bonds down eventually, wash in cold water with no soap and hang to dry. You have to live with the nubs or use a wire brush to right them again, breaking the filaments.
