Care Instruction: How to Iron Your Linen Noren To ensure your Noren looks its best, please follow these simple instructions for removing any creases from storage: Prepare the Iron: Set your iron to the "Linen" or "High" temperature setting. Use a Pressing Cloth: Always place a clean, thin cotton cloth between the iron and the Noren to protect the fabric and prevent any direct shine or damage to the indigo-dyed areas. Use Steam: Linen responds best to moisture. Lightly mist the fabric with water before ironing, or use the steam function on your iron to help relax the fibers and remove stubborn wrinkles. Ironing Technique: Gently press the iron over the cloth in smooth, steady motions. Avoid sliding the iron too aggressively, which can stretch the linen. Finishing: Once ironed, hang the Noren immediately to allow it to cool and set, which will help it maintain a crisp, flat appearance.
