Abstract: A sealable plastic bag for one or more articles of clothing to be washed and at least partially dried with a large top opening and a separate valve for allowing heated air from a hair dryer to enter and be exhausted from the bag. The bag can contain a pre-measured quantity of detergent behind a frangible or otherwise breakable wall so that when water is placed into the bag, the detergent can mix therewith when the wall is destroyed. The bag then can be kneaded and serves a small, portable, clean, washing machine, with the ability to exchange the water for cleaner water and then to dry the same with the hair dryer.
