Wool garments are usually very attractive and warm but they are also a lot of work to keep the wool fabric from shrinking. That means that they must be washed with care. First if the label says to dry clean it that is the only method of cleaning that should be attempted. Don’t try to hand wash to save money or time because if the articles is marked dry clean only that means the wool fabric has not been properly prepared for hand washing. Therefore there is a very good chance that the final result might be that your favorite wool top is shrunk, faded, no longer soft or all three.
If the piece of clothing says you can hand wash it then this must be done a certain way to avoid damage to the wool fabric. Place the garment in tepid water and then, using a mild detergent, let it soak for no more than five minutes. Never use hot water or bleach on any wool fabric. After five minutes rinse the soap out using cool water. When getting out, before drying, gentle squeeze the garment, do not wring this will cause wrinkling that will be difficult to get out later. To dry the properly lay it down on a flat surface, on top of a towel if good, and place it carefully so the shape is right. You may have to gently stretch it to reshape it after washing. Keep the item out of the sun and away from a heat source while drying. Do not hang your wool fabric garment to dry. The weight of the water will stretch it out of shape.
If storing your wool garment over the warm season there are a few things to do to ensure they remain in good condition for the next time you are ready to wear them. To being with if you are folding something to be put into a drawer make sure you put white tissue paper between the layers to avoid wrinkling. If you can, dry clean everything you want to store. This will remove any food stains or body oils, all of which attract moths and other bugs. They will also put your wool fabric garments into sealed bags, again helping to protect against moths. Its always better to take too many precautions than not enough in the care of your wool items.
