When cared for properly, wool will last a long time, keeping you snug for years to come.
Cleaning
You can spot clean wool easily using water or a suitable spot-cleaning spray. To wash the whole item, we recommend gentle hand washing with a mild wool detergent, reshaping the item by hand and drying it flat, as hanging it from a line or rack may over-stretch the wool. Take care not to soak items for too long (no more than 20 minutes) as the wool may shrink and become hard.
Alternatively, most of our sweaters can be dry cleaned. Always check the care label first.
DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR TUMBLE DRY your sweater or any other merino wool product, or dry it on a radiator.
Ironing
For our merino blankets, a gentle pressing with an iron will keep the yarn flat. Just make sure to have the iron on the ‘wool’ setting and to put a damp muslin or fine cloth between the iron and the wool to protect it.
Storage
Store your woollens clean and folded, preferably in a plastic storage bag or vacuum bag to protect against moths.
