Inspect The Bed
Run a hand carefully along frame edges, fasteners and nearby surfaces. A rough corner that barely matters to cotton can catch a fine silk surface.
Reduce Personal Snag Hazards
Sharp nails, rings, watches and rough skin can catch delicate fabric. You do not need a sterile bedroom—just awareness of repeated contact points.
Wash Silk Separately
Zippers, hooks and rough fabrics create unnecessary abrasion. Use a mesh bag where the label and machine setup make it practical.
Address Small Pulls Carefully
Do not cut or yank a pulled thread impulsively. If damage affects a seam or continues to spread, professional textile repair may be safer.
