Wool Care

Keeping it simple

We already shrunk it anyways

 

Machine wash wool? 

  • I know that sounds wrong but lets talk about this
  • Our wool is felted or shrunk already
  • It is harder to rinse by hand
  • It easier and works by machine
  • It actually gets clean
  • It is cloth diaper safe 
  • Unscented
  • Wool and fine fiber safe
  • Made in the USA
  • Highly concentrated
  • 1 tiny TBSP does a whole load of wool
  • We recommend pre-dissolving it before adding to the machine

We recommend Washing with Unicorns

Doesn’t that sound like a dream?  Well lets make it a reality.  We have partnered with Unicorn Laundry Care products because they are the best product I have found for our wool.  Find a retailer near you or in our shop.

And rinse some more

Our wool is thick and soft and likes to hold fluid.  Which means it will hold onto soap and detergent unless it is rinsed and washed well.  So we highly recommend using not only very little soap, but also to rinse well.  

Unicorn Beyond Soft in a natural Fabric Conditioner.  It helps keeps the fibers soft and healthy.

 

WASH

Step 1 Dissolve 1 TBSP of Unicorn Beyond Clean in some water

Step 2 Add wool to your washing machine

Step 3 Add dissolved detergent to the dispenser

Step 4 Turn on washer to Cool setting (use wool setting or lower spin)

RINSE

Do a secondary rinse cycle, aka rinse and spin with pre-dissolved Beyond Soft Conditioner.

We also recommend doing this every so often to refresh your wool between washes.  It removed light soiling and neutralized salts
