Tips for Washing Polar Fleece?

Turn garment inside out before washing in warm water. Don't use the dryer; hang to dry on line.

All I have read recommends washing in COLD water.
You think you have problems - try living with a Golden Retriever.

Yes, do as Edie says, use cold water, wash garments inside out, and hang to dry.

Handwash it!
