How do you wash organic cotton without it shrinking?

It's always daunting washing your new favorite outfit for the first time! Especially clothing for your little ones! Follow these easy 3 steps and you will never have to worry again! 

All the fabric at Little Piglet Co is pre-laundered. This means it is washed in very hot water, without any detergents and dried on a high setting. The goal is to preshrink the fabric without ruining its integrity. 

When you are washing at home our recommendation for having no shrinkage is as follows: 

1. Wash on cold (with like colors! Never mix our bright colors with whites or light colors.) 
2. Hand dry if possible. If you don't have a special place to hand dry your clothing, don't worry! You can always use the back of a chair, or even lay the garment flat on a table or desk. 
3. If you are in a rush to wear your outfit, feel free to dry it on low heat.
