Together. Towels dont't get contaminated by washing shmattes, and the key word is: THEY ARE BEING WASHED!

separately.

this thread makes me laugh because I'm remembering the days my husband used to try and convince me the rags shouldn't be washed in our machine at all but taken to a laundromat like his mother does. LOL.


Just by the way, it was explained to me that when you do washing if the washing is uneven in the sense that you have heavy objects together with light objects it's not good for the machine. So I usually do a completely separate towel wash from everything else

But today's newer machines have sensors and they automatically balance the loads.

I remember people taking rugs and heavy items to laundromats in order not to ruin their machines.
Also some machines were too small or they couldn't handle the heavy items, some items were labeled to be washed in commercial machines only or something like that.
Maybe she thought the rags would ruin her machine too. Or contaminate it? Or maybe this is what everyone did in those days?
