Hi! Sorry to also be so late! I've heard that very good advice since I started doing this but I've stupidly never taken it. My low back is telling me to not be so stupid, and I thank you for reminding me there's an easier way! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Soak it in the soap for a while to remove the smell, you won't have to plunge for long to get it perfectly clean. I also do my laundry by hand, which is a million times cleaner than a washing machine.
Thanks for the tip! The shirt is now mostly smell-free but on hot days the ball cap that also got hit lets off a little skunkiness. Guess it's my "lucky hat" now. The one problem I have with handwashing is doing larger things like coats or blankets. You kind of have to wash them in sections and the weight of the water they hold, makes it much harder work for sure.But free workout, free laundry, and self-reliance all beat machine washing easily. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@AlwaysAntsi would like to see how people tackle those big items. Well I guess you could use the same process but just in bigger containers like a plastic storage tub or a garbage can. Maybe??
@@AlwaysAnts The temperature you choose depends on the fabric. Also if white or colored. Warm should be fine. Hot works best, but you don't want to ruin a good piece of clothing if it can't handle heat. I would choose the longest circle on the washing machine. Hope that helps. 🌺
No, I have not. I have an actual hand-crank wringer, but it's in another state and I have yet to go back and get it. And you may be surprised to hear-- I basically ignore TH-cam unless theres a new vid to upload or a comment to respond to. So thank you for commenting and watching, and for the tip!
Ah, I just knew there was some plant or another that could help, which is why I tried myrtlewood leaves. Thank you! I wonder if all members of the parsley family would work? Lomatium or biscuitroot ("desert parsely") is one, and it's on my list of "Good Plants." Tip much appreciated!
I like to wash my baby’s clothes by hand and I fold it while wet and squeeze. You literally just keep folding it over until you can’t fold anymore and squeeze it. This way it doesn’t stretch the clothing by using the twisting method

Just came across this 8 mos later. My one suggestion would be to switch out the plunger handle with a broomstick handle. Little easier on the back

Soak and wash in baking soda water. Hopefully that will remove the scent.
A generous amount of baking soda.
Oh, thank you for that tip! Even now that shirt still smells-- should it be warm or cold water? Sorry so late reply, my bad!

@@Agustina-ko4um Indeed, quite helpful! Thank you so much, I sincerely appreciate it!
It will b better to soak the clothes first
Have you seen the 3 bucket method for washing and wringing clothes? Apparently it does wring the clothes out decently.

@@AlwaysAntsThanks for replying!
Might try soaking in a bunch of fresh parsley. Worth a try.

How do people "ring out" clothes safely without technology? How were they doing it before? Anyone know?

VERY good advice! Thank you!
Put your face in the bucket
???
Why put your face in the bucket?
Because it's dirty
Because it's dirty like your butt
You look good with your hair wet from the water
