I have a washer and it has Permanent press, quick cycle, normal, and soak. I need to wash some clothes in a gentile cycle mode but my washer doesn’t have one! What are my options?

Wash them in a large, clean sink with woolite or some other hand washable detergent. You can always get a delicates mesh bag and try washing them in cold water on the quick cycle, but try something not especially valuable as a test. It will most likely work fine in the bag, but test anyway to be sure.

    Please tell me you mean a "gentle" cycle and not a "gentile" cycle….have never seen a washer with a "non-jewish" cycle……..okay, use the permanent press cycle; that’s gentle.

    Just use the "Permanent Press" cycle…it won’t hurt your clothes.

    For delicate clothes, though, I highly recommend that you don’t dry them in the dryer. Hang the clothes to air dry. Your dryer could ruin the clothes.
