By adding a few drops of essential oil to the white vinegar diluted in the wash drum, you can give your linen a pleasant scent. You can also use sodium bicarbonate to obtain softer towels.

When washing, it is important not to use too hot water to prevent the fibers from sticking. In addition, by ironing the towels and shaking them vigorously before drying them, you can make sure that the fibers unravel and that the towels become particularly soft.
