Care Instructions
Care Instructions
AIRING: Freshen outdoors by giving the blanket a good shake, then hang it and let the breeze loosen any dust or dirt.
HANDWASH: Soak the textile in warm water mixed with gentle detergent. Gently work the foam through, avoiding unnecessary rubbing or stretching. Rinse but do not ring out. Reform the original shape, lay out flat and allow it to dry naturally.
BRUSHING: Use a soft-bristle baby brush to lift any loose dirt and comb the pile fibers. Lay the textile on a flat surface and brush with the pile (grain).
SPOT CLEAN: Do not scrub the fabric.
Treat fresh liquid stains by soaking the stained area with warm water mixed with light detergent and dabbing with a soft cloth.
DRY CLEAN: Wool should never be machine washed. If there is a large heavy stain, use a specialist dry cleaner and remind them that this is a delicate wool product.
DRYING: Ideally lie the textile flat to avoid wrinkles and maintain its shape. If you lay it over a clothes line, ensure the weight of the wet textile is supported. Avoid direct sunlight and never use a tumble drier.
STORING: If not using your textiles, store them in a dark, cool place in an air-tight container. Moths love wool, so if storing for a long period, shake it out every few months to check for them. If you have moths, use a quality moth repellent.
DO NOT MACHINE WASH / TUMBLE DRY: Never machine wash or tumble dry your natural wool textile as it will damage the fibers, causing them to stiffen and shrink.
