Abstract
A washboard attachment for pre-laundering a garment is adapted for use with a top loading automatic laundry machine with an upwardly directed rotor and a basin. The attachment has means which fit over the rotor and a ribbed portion which spans the basin to support legs which stand on the basin's rim. The support legs are of a length so as to cause the washboard attachment to be downwardly directed toward the basin. The attachment has curved sides to contain incidental washwater and direct it to the basin.
