Shirley...You can Google but it says to use half the amt. of detergent you would normally use for a regular load in warm water. Some suggest gentle cycle and others say normal. I have never washed burlap but I would hang I believe to dry. Good luck!
Hand wash and lay flat to dry. They are pretty sturdy, but I never put burlap in my washing machine.
I would hand wash it, rinse it, and leave it in the sun to dry
I work with burlap in many projects.
Wash in lukewarm water and lay flat. Do not wring it out and do not lay it in sun. I put mine between old towels and let it dry in my tub. As it begins to dry you may want to hand press to remove wrinkles.
Hi Shirley, hope this help-s you out.

I would hand-wash it with mild soap and lay it flat to dry.
