How to hand wash your knitwear?
 The trick here is to avoid agitating your work, as this can lead to felting, stretching or yarn breaks. You’ll need a big bowl or a very clean sink.

  • Use warm, not boiling water.

  • Add a gentle detergent.

  • Leave the garment to soak for a little while – say 15 minutes.

  • Rince the garment very well to remove all the detergent

  • Wrap the garment in a towel, and press more water out. Do not wring, twist or rub.

  • Lay the garment flat to dry.

How to machine wash your knitwear safely?

  • Put your knitwear in a pillow case or mesh laundry bag.

  • Remember that color can leak out of or into yarn – keep colors similar in the wash.

  • Avoid putting heavy items like jeans in with your knits.

  • Use a gentle detergent or none.

  • Wash at 30 or 40 on a delicate cycle.

  • Do not tumble dry unless the label explicitly says it’s okay.

  • Lay flat to dry.

  • Hang them on padded hangers.

  • Folded and stored in shallow drawers.
