Caring for your Wool/Cashmere Clothing
Washing:
Firstly wool is self-cleaning and so this clothing can be worn quite a while before it needs to be washed. Sometimes just wiping with a damp cloth is all that a dirty spot needs. When it is time to wash we suggest using Euclan wool wash. Simply put this product in the washing machine, select cold water and the gentle/delicate/hand-wash/wool wash cycle. Then add the wool items. Let the clothing soak in the cool suds for about 15 minutes; let the cycle run; and then drain the tub. DO NOT RINSE – just spin out the water. This leaves the added lanolin on the clothing. Also, this product has added lavender or eucalyptus oils as a moth repellant.
Drying:
This is the most important step in washing wool. NEVER PUT WOOL IN THE DRYER. When laid out flat to dry on a drying rack, the wool clothing dries overnight. At the end of the season, store the clean wool clothing in a plastic bag, placed in a drawer with a lavender sachet, to repel moths.
