Wool is known for its unique properties such as absorbing moisture and regulating temperature, making it a natural functional material that both insulates and cools. Opting for wool is an investment in quality, and with the right care, wool garments can become long-lasting favorites in your wardrobe.
Here are some tips on how to care for your wool garments.
Wool has natural self-cleaning properties thanks to lanolin – a natural fat that coats the wool fibers and repels dirt and unwanted odors. That’s why you don’t need to wash woolen clothes as often as those made from other materials. Airing the garment between wears can be enough to keep it feeling and smelling fresh.
When it’s time to wash your wool clothing, it should be handled with care. Wool is sensitive to both mechanical processing and high temperatures. That’s why the garment should be washed on a gentle cycle, preferably a wool cycle if your machine has one. You can also use a wool detergent. Always follow the washing instructions on the garment for best results. It’s also important to avoid washing wool with fabric softener, as this can negatively affect its natural properties.
After washing, the wool is still sensitive, so avoid twisting the garment. Instead, roll it in a dry towel and gently press to remove excess water. Shape the garment to its original size and then lay it flat to dry. Washing and drying wool correctly is essential to maintain its fit and quality.
By following this wool care advice, you can extend the life of your wool garments and ensure that they retain their unique properties. Wool is an amazing material, and with the right care, your wool clothing will stay in top condition for a long time.
