A continuation of my previous post “I have 100 chokers, What is the best way to store them?”.

Now that I know how to store them, via a giraffe plushie (thank you @ALostInquirer@lemm.ee!), I need to figure out how to wash them.

Washing them all would take far too long, but I can’t simply add them into a delicates bag and toss them into the washing machine because I fear the cheap metal hooks will fall apart / corrode.

How should I was them all?

    I agree with hand washing as best to prevent any chains catching in lacey bits. If daily is a pain, maybe do it once a week. Just put a little detergent in the bathroom sink and give a few swishes and squeezes and hang them on something like this.

    If you do want to toss them in the washer, I’d use a lingerie laundry bag and just toss in a few, again to minimize potential snags or tangles and run on the delicate cycle and hang dry. It’d suck to toss a bunch in loose and pull out a big tangled ball. 😧
