An apparatus for washing at least one item, comprising a frame having a dome shape when viewed from its end, and a generally triangular or concave shape when viewed from its side; and a flow through mesh on the frame which allows washing fluid (generally water) to freely flow to and from the item being washed; the apparatus having an opening through which the at least one item to be washed can be placed into and removed from the apparatus. The frame may have an endless pocket; and a stiffener disposed within the pocket, the stiffener having a length exceeding that of the endless pocket, so that blunted ends of the stiffener overlap each other within the pocket. Pockets with strips make the side panels strong and resilient, protecting the items to be washed.

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for washing at least one item, comprising; a frame; an endless pocket; said frame comprising a stiffener disposed within said endless pocket, the stiffener having a length exceeding that of said endless pocket, so that ends of said stiffener overlap each other within said endless pocket, said ends being movable with respect to each other, send ends having end covers, said end covers having a smooth bulbous end; and a flow through mesh on the frame which allows washing fluid to freely flow to and from the item being washed; said apparatus having an opening through which the at least one item to be washed can be placed into and removed from said apparatus. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the frame has an oval shape when viewed from its bottom. 3. The apparatus claim 1, further comprising a closing apparatus for closing the opening. 4. The apparatus of claim 3, wherein said closing apparatus comprises one of a zipper, a slide seal arrangement, and a fabric fastener. 5. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein said closing apparatus comprises a zipper, further comprising a pocket for a zipper pull of the zipper, the pocket being sized, shaped and positioned so that when in the closed position, the zipper pull is hidden, the zipper will remain closed, and the zipper pull will not damage items outside the enclosure. 6. The apparatus claim 1, wherein said stiffener has a flexible peripheral shape so that flexing of said stiffener provides a pumping action to assist in circulating washing fluid through said apparatus. 7. The apparatus of claim 1, configured to have a dome shape when viewed from its end, and a generally semicircular shape when viewed from its side. 8. The apparatus claim 1, wherein said mesh comprises an open weave nylon; and a polyester mesh having a continuous array of closely spaced opening. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein said openings are substantially 1.0 millimeter in diameter. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein said open weave nylon and said polyester mesh are nip rolled together under heat and pressure. 11. An apparatus for washing at least one item, comprising; a frame; an endless pocket; said frame comprising a stiffener disposed within said endless pocket, the stiffener having a length exceeding that of said endless pocket, so that ends of said stiffener overlap each other within said endless pocket, said ends being movable with respect to each other; a flow through mesh on the frame which allows washing fluid to freely flow to and from the item being washed, said mesh being configured with a generally rectangular pocket; a stiffing strip disposed within said generally rectangular pocket; and said apparatus having an opening through which the at least one item to be washed can be placed into and removed from said apparatus. 12. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the frame has an oval shape when viewed from its bottom. 13. The apparatus claim 11, further comprising a closing apparatus for closing the opening. 14. The apparatus of claim 13, wherein said closing apparatus comprises one of a zipper, a slide seal arrangement, and a fabric fastener. 15. The apparatus of claim 14, wherein said closing apparatus comprises a zipper, further comprising a pocket for a zipper pull of the zipper, the pocket being sized, shaped and positioned so that when in the closed position, the zipper pull is hidden, the zipper will remain closed, and the zipper pull will not damage items outside the enclosure. 16. The apparatus claim 11, wherein said stiffener has a flexible peripheral shape so that flexing of said stiffener provides a pumping action to assist in circulating washing fluid through said apparatus. 17. The apparatus of claim 11, configured to have a dome shape when viewed from its end, and a generally semicircular shape when viewed from its side. 18. The apparatus claim 11, wherein said mesh comprises an open weave nylon; and a polyester mesh having a continuous array of closely spaced opening. 19. The apparatus of claim 18, wherein said openings are substantially 1.0 millimeter in diameter. 20. The apparatus of claim 18, wherein said open weave nylon and said polyester mesh are nip rolled together under heat and pressure. 21. An apparatus for washing at least one item, comprising; a frame; an endless pocket; said frame comprising a stiffener disposed within said endless pocket, the stiffener having a length exceeding that of said endless pocket, said stiffener being configured so that a first end of said stiffener moveably telescopes within a second end of said stiffener; a flow through mesh on the frame which allows washing fluid to freely flow to and from the item being washed, said mesh being configured with a generally rectangular pocket; a stiffing strip disposed within said generally rectangular pocket; and a stiffing strip disposed within said generally rectangular pocket; and said apparatus having an opening through which the at least one item to be washed can be placed into and removed from said apparatus. 22. The apparatus claim 21, wherein said stiffener has a flexible peripheral shape so that flexing of said stiffener provides a pumping action to assist in circulating washing fluid through said apparatus. 23. An apparatus for washing at least one item, comprising; a frame; an endless pocket on a periphery of an oval mesh panel; said frame comprising a stiffener disposed within said endless pocket; a flow through mesh on the frame which allows washing fluid to freely flow to and from the item being washed, said mesh having two portions configured so that said apparatus has a dome shape when viewed from its end, and a generally semicircular shape when viewed from its side, each of said portions of said mesh being configured with a generally rectangular pocket, a stiffing strip disposed within each said generally rectangular pocket so as to stiffen a respective portion, so that items in said apparatus are further protected during washing; and said apparatus having an opening through which the at least one item to be washed can be placed into and removed from said apparatus. 24. The apparatus of claim 23, wherein said stiffing strips cause said portions to bow inward when observed from the outside.
