Is it just me or does the fleece jackets I have and my infants fleece clothing catch and keep every piece of lint on them? I'm okay with my fleece but it drives me insane to have lint all over my kids' clothing - and it's impossible as you know to get it off!

Help - should I wash all fleece separately or what can I do to prevent this? I'm assuming washing one piece at a time with other clothes or washing all fleece together would make the difference? Would love your feedback!

Thank you, thank you, thank you... and my sanity thanks you...

I just wash like colors with like. That way if there is lint pickup at least it's the same color as the fleece! So, we do a red/purple/pink/orange load, a blue/green load, a black and maybe navy load/ and a "white" load.

And fleece is so wonderful in other respects ... it's worth a bit of laundry hassle IMO.

I *think* that fabric softener helps. Not that I use it all the time...

Use it to your advantage when your infant begins to crawl...think of all the sweeping/mopping time you can save! ;-)
