ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a fabric-conditioning article for use in a washing machine having a wash, spin, and rinse cycle comprising a fabric conditioner and a water-absorbable material in a package which will permit passage of water and having at least one area which will open upon application of internal pressure for releasably containing the fabric conditioner. In use, the package is tossed into a washing machine at the beginning of the wash cycle. The package takes in or absorbs water, creating an internal pressure within the package. Upon exposure to the centrifugal force of the spin cycle, the package opens thereby releasing the conditioner into the water of the rinse cycle which activates the conditioner. Any conventional fabric conditioner, such as a fabric softener, can be utilized in conjunction with the package.
