Removing Eye Shadow from Irish Crochet Step by Step

  1. Mix a little bit of dish soap with warm water and moisten the affected area with the soapy solution. Gently work it into the fabric and let it sit for 15 minutes.
  2. Using a clean, white cloth, dab the area with the solution. Avoid rubbing the fabric as this could damage or fray it.
  3. Soak a clean cloth in cool water and use it to rinse affected area. Make sure to blot area dry with a clean, lint-free cloth.
  4. If stain is still visible, mix together 1 part white vinegar and 2 parts cold water. Use a clean, soft cloth to apply the solution to the stain. Let it sit for 15 minutes and then rinse with cool water.
  5. For stubborn stains, mix 1/2 teaspoon of mild laundry detergent with a quart of cool water. Use a soft brush to lightly scrub the affected area and then rinse with cool water.
  6. Allow the fabric to air dry. Don't put it in the dryer as the heat could set the stain.

Tips & Tricks for Maintaining Your Irish Crochet Projects

  • When applying eye shadow, keep it away from the edges of the crochet fabric as much as possible. This will help reduce the chance of staining.
  • If you're using liquid or cream eye shadows, place a towel underneath project so that any overflow doesn't stain the fabric.
  • If you get eye shadow on your hands, use a damp cloth to wipe it off, as this will help lessen the chance of transferring it to fabric.
