Pre-washing Poly-viscose
A question for Pete, Rocky, and anyone else who's made a poly-viscose kilt.
We all know to wash cottons and poly-cottons to preshrink them before sewing.
We all know that with wool, you can just start sewing.
But do you wash your poly-viscose and dry it before you start measuring, cutting, and sewing?

Thanks Rocky.
That means I get right to the cutting and marking, with no mucking about with the washer and clothesline.
