Sewing question

[figmo]

I have a brocade made of acetate with laundering instructions to "hand wash in cold water and line dry."

Can I get away with not prewashing this fabric before using it? I ask because Warren has been buffing the dryer since 7:00 last night and is still at it.

Thirded. I was stupid enough to make a blouse out of acetate, once. And wash it - once. It was unwearable after that.
