Household practices in November

摘要

ON the threshold of winter, one feels like wearing warm clothes. Food pattern of people also changes. Similarly maintenance of household and care of children also need a special attention in order to safe guard them from the effect of winter. One feels comfortable in thick textured clothes viz. poplin, khadi, silk and blended fabrics (terycot, terywool) in this month. So keep aside your summer clothes for the next season after washing and drying them properly. You may knit or purchase readymade sweaters as per the needs of the family members. Take out your old sweaters, shawls, woollens and silk garments from the cupboards. Put them in the sun, in order to remove bad odour. Before putting them on hangers, iron them to remove folds/ creases.
