How to Hand Wash a Wool Sweater

[@chrisedwards2539]

Just love the trumpet. Promote the person who chose it. Wool washing advice just what I was after. Short, simple and precise , and entirely to the point.

[@JPlayerL10]

If the sweater is very dirty should you leave it in for longer?

Love how the clock animation showed two hours and not 10 mins 😅

[@littlegamer765]

Hahaha yes it does seem funny but actually there are clocks without the hour hand too. I don't know if I'm correct but I think it's called the Minute Clock or An Hour Clock and it completes one circle in 1 hour.

@@littlegamer765 Correct, I was just going to reply the same thing.

I just read, elsewhere, that moving garments from hot to cold water causes the fibres to constrict. Washing water should, therefore, be kept at an even temperature. Which is correct?

[@TheWoolmarkCompany]

Hi Alex, warm water works better to remove stains than cold water alone. This is why we recommend using lukewarm water in the video. Using hot water and extreme temperature changes can shrink and damage wool. Moving gently between lukewarm and cold water won't damage your woollen garments.

What if i do not have wool detergent? Can i use hand liquid soap?

[@pdelaprimm]

Of course. It needn’t be a specialized product, necessarily, unless you’re that concerned with the garment.

Will try 👍🏻

My jumper lives alongside a Border Collie and even with Herb Alpert on the trumpet that method might only just remove the outer surface of his hair and maybe some bits of old Jumbone. Happy Days and love from Cumbria.

[@isabelle5145]

how long will it take to dry that way?

[@tookurjaerbs]

Good question

How you're supposed to dry the item without leaving it lying wet is not explained.

[@helenapel7140]

There’s a method called "Jelly roll", you leave the sweater just as they did in the last frame, roll it, and then leave the sweater (on another towel) drying alone. Not quite sure if it was exactly like that, try looking it up! Hope it helps 😄

[@finosuilleabhain7781]

@@helenapel7140 Thanks Helena, I'll bear it in mind. Actually I've never had a problem with simply letting them dry flat on a towel - I was really commenting on what struck me as an oddity of the video. 😄

[@pdelaprimm]

Simply allow the article to dry on the towel.
