Care Insturctions Wool has excellent natural dirt resistant properties which makes it unnecessary to wash often. The wool cleans its self and it is repellent to dirt as the dirt stays on the surface due to the natural oils in the wool. A tip is to "let it air" outside when the air is moist. If despite this you still need to wash the blanket/throw please follow the instructions below. Throws made of lamb´s wool & merino wool. Machine wash at 30⁰ Celsius. Use only a program made for wool. Wash separately & iron on low temp. Do not tumble or use bleach. Throw made of Alpaca Dry cleaning only. Iron on low temp. Do not tumble dry or use bleach. Throw made of Mohair Dry cleaning only. Do not iron or tumble dry. Do not use bleach.

Blankets of 100% lamb's wool Dry cleaning only. Iron on medium temp. Do not tumble dy or use bleach. Cotton blankets Machine wash 60⁰ Celsius. Wash separately. Iron on medium temp. Do not use bleach. Chenille blankets Machine wash 40⁰ Celsius. Wash separately. Iron on medium temp. Do not use bleach. Kitchen wear made by half-linen Machine wash 40⁰ Celsius. Wash with similar colors. Iron on high heat. Do not tumble dry or use bleach. Maintenance of natural wool blankets After some time natural wool can form burls (small balls of wool on the surface). The softer and finer the wool the more sensitive it is. Burls occur from wear so if possible avoid strong abrasion on the blanket and avoid using it as a cushion or as the primary covering for a sofa. To remove the burls and get the blankets soft an fluffy once again you can easily "rug" them. To "rug" a blanket you can use a steel comb or some Velcro.
