Hi Sandi ,
Thanks for posting that, I thought of posting this the other day,as I have not heard that issue mentioned yet on this forum.
I do not believe that it's only clothes from china that are "preserved "with the formaldahyde &other chemicals,God only knows what! Every new clothes shop has a powerful smell from the new clothes,I am really
sensitive to it &although I have no new clothes in ages,I would need to wash clothes 3 or 4 times &I can still get a lingering smell off them.It catches in my throat.The washing powder I use is called Ecover,it's the best one I could find,
this seems to give me no obvious trouble.
Sometimes I have found great clothes in charity/2nd hand shops but they're just as tricky because clothes have mostly been washed in that strong "regular"washing powder or doused in perfumes &so same story.And so I have the same clothes for years,but a large variety.
Sorry for rambling
