Question
If my wife has run out of clean clothes, is there a basis to permit washing on Chol Hamoed?
Answer
Hello,
If there are no clothes left suitable for wearing, and it is not possible to buy new clothes, it is permitted to wash.
The permission is only in private, and only to wash what is necessary for the festival, without adding other clothes.
