Letter from avid christianbowman.com reader…
Dear christianbowman.com
I have had frequent problems in the past of washing my bed sheets only to have them come out of the wash dirtier than when i put them in. When I go to put them on the line, there are lines and marks of dirt and smut that weren’t there when I put them in the wash.
What are they and could you please give me some advice as to how I can get rid of them?

Dear Christian
So you’re the one! I’ve always wondered who that person was that read my site. Thank you for writing a letter to yourself, can I also say, thanks for washing your sheets, they’ve been sitting in the garage for days waiting to be washed!
Those marks are a collection of lint and dirt that cannot escape the creases and of your sheets during the rinse cycle, typically because it is spinning too fast and forces them to push into the creases.
The best way to get rid of that problem of the sheets collecting the dirt is to wash the sheets in your machine in “delicates” mode. this will slow down the spin thus allowing the dirt to be washed away and not forced under pressure into creases.
Best wishes and happy washing!
