How to wash wool

Firstly, you should note that there are various approaches to washing woolen clothing and you should choose one regarding the label of the garment. Some woolen clothing can only be dry-cleaned, but most of them can either be washed by hand or in the washing machine. When washing your woolen sweater by hand, the first step would be to squirt a little of the wool detergent that you own into a place where the washing will happen, a sink or a washing up bowl. Then you should turn your sweater inside-out, put it in the water and let it soak for a while. The soaking will help the soap to submerge in the fibers. Without rubbing, rinse your garment twice to get rid of the soap. Do not start to wring your sweater after the wash, instead gently press to drain the water and roll your garment in a dry towel for the excess water removal. Secondly, If it says so on the label, you can also wash your woolen clothing in the washing machine. Use a gentle cycle or a special program for wool on your washing machine and choose the right detergent. Turn your clothes inside-out and place them in the washing machine. When the washing cycle is complete, you might be able to tumble dry your garments, according to their labels.
