![]() ![]() I was too small to remember that, and I don’t remember ever wearing the tiny sweater either. There are photos of baby-me wearing the pink dress, nearly swallowed up by its size on my tiny, malnourished body. Fur literally flies into the air if you try to pick it up. The majority of the space in the box is taken up by a fur coat made of 100% rabbit fur. It’s white with pink trim and my first name is emblazoned on the left side, woven into the pattern with pink block lettering my maiden name is on the right. There’s a Ziploc bag holding a tiny pink dress with crisp pleats and dainty green flowers and another bag holding a knit sweater small enough to fit on a baby doll. It sits on the shelf in the hall closet, and it’s filled with memories of my childhood.

Pope Benedict XVI Reminds Us.Patric continues his love of laundry and home in St Paul MN with his partner and a very well cared for Lime tree. Patric has been featured in both local and national media including Live with Kelly and Ryan, the Washington Post, Good Morning LA, the Wall Street Journal, NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, The New York Times, WGN, Twin Cities Live, the Pioneer Press, GMA3, The Tamron Hall Show, and internationally with the BBC, The Globe and Mail and Die Welt. These camps sparked a revolution, prompting a book Laundry Love, now in its fourth printing and a television show, The Laundry Guy on HGTV and Discovery+. Patric started sharing his expertise at his much talked about, and often sold out, Laundry Camps, teaching people new and better ways to care for all of their apparel and home textiles. This publicity completely changed his direction into the world of laundry and clothing care. This curiosity only grew when the Twin Cities newspaper, the Star Tribune, featured Patric and his love of laundering everything, from cashmere sweaters to tailored suits at home. The store carried a small, but curated collection of fine laundry products, sparking the curiosity of the Minneapolis/St Paul community. Opening his designer vintage store, Mona Williams, in 2013 Patric embarked on the next step in his journey. Time in these legendary stores taught him 2 major lessons, that incredible clothes are fun, and that all clothing, regardless of price can be cared for at home. He studied Merchandising Apparel and Textiles at the University of Kentucky then left for an incredible career in luxury fashion at McAlpins, Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom. Voted best dressed in 8th grade and in high school, the path was set. As a child, he loved clothes, both wearing them and their care. When he was barely 3 years old, Santa brought him a toy washing machine, fueling a passion already inside him and presenting itself when he helped hang clothes on the clothesline or fold the sheets with his beloved Granny Dude. Before there was a TV show, and before there was a book, Patric Richardson loved laundry. ![]()
