Ironing - any thoughts?

Don't put it away crumpled. The creases will embed in it and you will need to rewash it or at least steam it.
A light iron over if you want and then again when you use it mimismo.

I hate, loathe and detest ironing! Yesterday I got out a previously ironed and put away tablecloth. When it was on the table I decided that, despite my aforementioned aversion, it needed ironing! Curses! Now it's been washed and is on the airer and I'm wondering - do I iron it before I put it away or not? For some reason putting it away wrinkled goes against the grain, but I know when I get it out it will need ironing! Aaagghh! What shall I do??!!
