A step by step guide to caring for your wool blanket...

1. Air Wool Blankets Outside

Often air ventilation is the best way to freshen wool blankets. Take the wool blanket outside and give it a good shake before hanging the blanket in an area where there is good airflow. This will loosen any dust or dirt from the blanket.

2. Brush wool blankets with a soft bristle brush

Like most blankets, wool blankets also need a refresh from time-to-time and can easily be achieved with a soft-bristle garment brush. Lay the blanket flat on the floor and brush along the grain of the blanket’s surface. This will ensure the wool fibres are all lying in the same direction, removes any surface soil or stain and smooths the fibres of the blanket.

3. Clean liquid stains

Wool is naturally stain and water repellent, but after a few minutes, liquid will begin to soak into the fabric. To remove this liquid stain, use warm water and mild detergent to spot clean as soon as possible. Don’t scrub the fabric. Instead, soak the stained area with warm water and detergent and blot with a soft cloth.

4. Wash heavily soiled blankets

To wash heavily soiled wool blankets, use the gentle wool wash cycle on the washing machine, use cold water and only use specified wool wash detergents.

5. Dry wool blankets

To dry wool blankets, it is best to hang them flat over a clothes line outside to support the weight of the wet blanket. It is also important to hang wool blankets away from direct sunlight to avoid fading and it may cause the wool to dry too quickly, which may result in a coarseness of the fabric. Do not put wool blankets in the dryer, as it can destroy the softness and shape of the wool blanket.
