Knitted reversible scarf WTK

Lambswool comes from the lamb’s first shearing, and it’s a sustainable and biodegradable material.  It is fine and soft, and requires minimal processing. As with every wool type, lambswool is environmentally friendly. It’s a biodegradable material as it naturally decomposes in soil, releasing precious nutrients.

Hand washing is recommended for lambswool to maintain its softness and prevent pilling. The wool fibers in lambswool have delicate cuticle cells that protect the outer layer, and machine washing can disrupt these fibers, leading to a loss of softness. By hand washing, you can ensure that your knitted scarf remains soft and in good condition.

Soak the knitted scarf in a basin of lukewarm water and wool wash. Try not to use regular laundry detergent; instead, use a wash specially formulated for wool items.
Squeeze the soap through the garment, being careful not to wring or stretch your scarf. Rinse it, and remove excess water, again being careful not to wring or stretch.
Reshape the knitted scarf and lay flat to dry.
