revitalising newborn stash?

i lent my newborn stash to a friend and got them back again. I was planning to strip wash them, but they are also quite crunchy. I know they are not new and have had a bit of use but hoping i can make them a bit softer.



there is a mix of fitteds and prefolds, and a few itti aios.

Scrunch them like a stress ball - makes the world of difference.

any other ideas?

does vinegar soften them?? The dryer??

Short burst in the dryer with a tennis ball?

Tumble dry?

Mine are mostly microfleece so seem to stay soft, but this has worked on my non-nb MCNs.

Mine are heaps softer out of the dryer.

i don't have a dryer, but have a laundromat close by. they don't have PUL so do i still put them on low temp?

Yep, always low heat.

Take them down almost dry and then just whizz them for ten mins or so.
