Caring for wool items can seem like a hassle if you don't follow some simple rules.

In general, wool products require much less care, as the clothes practically take care of themselves.

Rest between wears

It is important to wait at least 24 hours between wearing a wool product.

During this time, the wool will restore its structure and return its natural elasticity and flexibility.

Storage of things

Wool items should be stored folded, but not immediately after wearing.

It is best to hang wool items over the back of a chair to allow them to breathe before putting them in a drawer.

Washing

Wool has natural antibacterial and odor-resistant properties.

Experts advise not to wash woolen items, or to wash them very rarely.

In case of stains or odor, wool must be washed by hand and in cold water no higher than 30 degrees.

Ironing

Wool products do not require ironing. Due to their inherent qualities, it is enough to steam them after wearing or washing.

Ironing will deform the item and may damage delicate fibres.
