Decipher washing labels...

[Russ]

I would like to know if you any of you understand what the little symbols mean on the washing care instructions in the attached image. I can guess a couple, but what the heck is the circle enclosed on a square mean? What is the circle with a X mean? What is the traingle with an X mean?

Thanks!

How do you people know this stuff?

This forum is kind of like the magic 8 ball when I was kid, you can ask any question and it will be answered....

As usual, I feel like an ignoramus. I was clueless to what those labels meant.

Thanks all of you. Now I will stop screwing up my jerseys and t-shirts...

Good luck on the road ;)
