How to Wash Wool Soakers, Longies or Shorties
HOW TO CLEAN WOOLIES
-
Fill your wash basin with 5 cups warm water from your tap. (Larger items will require more water.)
-
Add 1 TSP of Beyond Fibre Wash (if removing stains or lanolin use hot water and Beyond Clean) with your wool or knit item. (Once again for larger items add a bit more detergent.)
-
Submerge your wool or knit until you see no more bubbles coming up and is fully saturated.
-
Soak for 15 minutes; but during the soaking, gently squeeze item and re-submerge to make sure water solution has penetrated throughout all the fibers. Do not rub or agitate.
-
If stained or heavy soiled, or if your wash water is really dirty, repeat steps 1-5.
-
Gently squeeze water out of your wool or knits and discard.
-
Refill the wash basin with clean warm or hot water. (Please be consistent with the water temperature, as to not shock your wool) That is how felting happens.
-
At this time you can add ½ tsp of Beyond Soft, to non-lanolized items.
-
Submerge, and gently squeeze wool while under water a few times.
-
Gently squeeze water out of your wool or knits again.
-
If lanolizing, you can start that process now, if not then go to next step.
-
Lay wool flat on a towel and roll up the towel with wool in it. Push on the rolled up towel to get excess water out.
-
Open the towel and lay the wool flat to dry or on a mesh drying table or rack.
