-Ironing is the use of a hot tool to straighten washed clothes called an iron.
The iron is a device, the iron works by unraveling the links between the long chains of polymer molecules present in the fibers of the material. The tool is pressed on its hot surface on a flat surface, usually with the cloth or cloth, and clothes or steam wrinkles appear, the fiber spreads and keeps it in the new shape when it cools.
Start ironing the collar of the shirt and keep your shoulders above the board,
place the shirt on the iron and iron first one side of the collar and then the other, carefully stretching the shirt until it is ironed.
Now iron the shoulders , place the shirt on the edge of the board and on the front and then the back of the shirt. Repeat the same process for the other shoulder.
Iron the sleeves , now moving on to the sleeves and hem. Place the sleeves correctly on the board so that the points coincide with the armpit.
Iron the front of the shirt , lay the front of the shirt on the board and pay attention to the seams as you iron, first on one side and then the other.
– Iron a pair of pants , crotch first, iron around the crotch area, open the seams inside the crotch and iron towards the hem at the waist while adjusting the seam with your free hand.
This ironing must be done between the legs because otherwise there will be wrinkles on the inside that will take time away from ironing. Pleats and front pockets For a three-dimensional look, place a towel inside the pants around the waist and spread a clean cloth over the pants.
Iron wrinkles along the front and bottom of the waistband and top pocket of the fabric. Arrange the folds according to the existing fold and press firmly at a distance of about 10 cm from the fold.
Pre-existing creases, place the pants perpendicular to the iron with both feet together, taking care to align the existing creases. Most pants have a pleat at the bottom of the waist that connects to the pleat.
If the pleat appears to have loosened, iron again so that the seams meet the inside and side seams so they are on top of each other at the crotch and hem.
-To iron a skirt , to begin ironing the skirt, you must place it on the widest part of the table, starting at the waist and moving towards the folds.
We rotate the skirt until we complete the full circle. Place the skirt on the table, secure it in the folds and move the iron to shape it one by one.
Place the iron a few centimeters high on each fold and steam. Let each layer cool on the board before moving on to the next. This will ensure that the folds that were previously ironed do not wrinkle.

The iron is a device that works by untangling the bonds between the long chains of polymer molecules present in the fibers of the material. These fibers expand and retain their new shape when cooled. It does this with heat as it acts as a weighted heating element.

Hooks are a device shaped like human shoulders designed to make it easier to hang jackets, blazers, shirts, blouses or dresses on everything, hence the famous phrase: You can hang your pants, shirt or coat anywhere. Prevents wrinkles by itself, with a bottom strip to hang the pants.
