Vintage knitwear care instructions
If you give your woolen garment the proper treatment, it will last for a very long time.
Wool contains lanolin which makes the material dirt-repellent. So you don’t need to wash a woolen garment very often, and when you do, it has to be done carefully and in the right way.
Sometimes some hours hanging outside in foggy weather is enough to clean the garment.
When you wash, we recommend hand wash only and with soap made especially for wool. Use lukewarm water with a maximum temperature of 30 degrees Celcius.
It is important not to wring the garment but press the water out very carefully and let it drip out. The garment needs to lay flat on a towel when drying. You can change the towel sometimes during the drying process until the garment is completely dry.
