1 Make up beds and cots

TYPES OF LINENS

The term linens is used to describe any woven or knitted bath, bed, or
kitchen textile such as sheets, towels and table clothes. This is true even if the
fabric that makes up the item is not linen. The name is derived from an earlier
time when all of these textiles were commonly made with linen. So when using
the term linens what a person means depends on textiles or bed, bath and
kitchen accessories. Today cotton has replaced te linen used in these activities.

Linen is a fabric that is made from flax and fibers and not from
cotton. The main difference in types of linen fabric comes from the length of the
fiber used. Short tow fibers result in a coarser fabric and long line fibers result
in a more refined cloth.

Cotton that is made to resemble the wide and course weave of linen is
called madapolam. However, if one asks to see the linen at the store, he or she
will be shown different types of table coverings, bed coverings and bathroom
textiles. Table coverings often come in sets and include the tablecloth, napkins
and placemats. Table runners that are placed down the center of a table are
also considered linen under table coverings.
Like tablecloths, bed linens come in sets as well. These sets often include
the fitted and flat sheets, shams, pillowcases, bed skirts and comforter. Duvet
covers that are removable are a less traditional item belonging to the bed
coverings category. The last category is the textiles that one utilizes in the
bathroom. Towels are the largest item in this category that includes bath towels
and body sheets. Hand towels and wash clothes round out this category
completing a standard bathroom linen set.
Cleaning household linens is done as appropriate to the type of cloth.
Household linens are most likely to have stains from organic sources such as
food, blood, and soil. If the linens are made of natural fibres such as linen or
cotton, the cloth will need to be rinsed as soon as possible in cold water to
prevent the stain from becoming permanent. Stains from red wine, or red or
purple berries and fruit are an exception and must be washed in boiling water,
yet despite this, these stains may be impossible to remove.
Regular washing of household linens should be done in hot water for
hygienic reasons, to destroy bacteria left on the linens from frequent use. Linen
and cotton that are white may also become yellow over time, but this is
eliminated by bleaching, either with liquid bleach, or by the traditional method
of hanging the linens in the sun to let the sunlight bleach out the discoloration.
