Use white or black, depending on the color of the t shirt. It's not perfect, but it helps, and may prevent the holes from getting bigger.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02632845223344968682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23466420.post-73643682904652380012014-02-08T10:34:12.363-08:002014-02-08T10:34:12.363-08:00I found that my desk at work has a "sharp&quo...I found that my desk at work has a "sharp" piece in the plastic trim at the front just left of center and my clothes catch on it and pull.

Then when you put it in the washer it thins the material more usually causing the holes. Front load waswhers use less water and throw your clothing around more than a top load washer. Try washing your tshirts seperate on the delicate cycle :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23466420.post-30828916872373315522012-10-12T08:17:15.610-07:002012-10-12T08:17:15.610-07:00I have them too in nearly all my shirts!
