Step-by-Step Instructions on How to Wash your Cotton Shibari Rope:


1. Prepare the Solution: Start by preparing a solution of white vinegar and baking soda. While these two ingredients are commonly used together for cleaning, it's important to use them separately when washing your Shibari ropes. Mixing them simultaneously can neutralize their cleaning properties.


2. Hand Washing: Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and add either white vinegar or baking soda, not both. Gently submerge your Shibari ropes in the solution and allow them to soak for 15-20 minutes. This will help to loosen any dirt, oils, or residues trapped in the fibers.


3. Rinse Thoroughly: After soaking, rinse your ropes thoroughly with clean water to remove any remaining residue. It's essential to rinse the ropes well to ensure that no cleaning solution is left behind, which could cause irritation or discomfort during use.


4. Air Dry: Once rinsed, gently squeeze out excess water from your ropes and hang them to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can cause the fibers to weaken or shrink.
