Case 1
NOTE: There is blue card under the holes to help them stand out
These are the first photos I received since requesting them on my blog article Holes in washing (laundry). Thanks Kristin. Her description of the problem is as follows -
"For several months now I've been finding small holes in clothing - mostly in cotton t-shirt type material. At first I assumed it was something I was doing wrong. So, I no longer buy any off brand detergent. I've been careful to wash on the right speeds and not fill the tub too full. The holes remain and they appear even in clothing worn only once.
I know the holes were not there prior to washing. Some of the holes are small and some almost look like small tear. It doesn't seem to matter what brand of clothing - Old Navy, Target, Aeropostale, GAP. This is frustrating!" (washer/dryer - drum capacity size not reported)
The damage in the above laundry is different to the holes described by many others. These holes could be described more as tears or cuts. Remember that holes and damage to laundry can be caused by disparate things and can manifest in different ways. We need more photos to try and find out if there is a common new explanation for the unusually high incidences of damage to laundry currently being reported.
