Fill a clean sink with warm water
About 30°C / 86°F is ideal
Add your favourite wool-friendly detergent. We're fans of Greenscents
Gently place your knits into the water and push down, so that they're fully saturated with soapy water
Make sure not to agitate as it goes in the water - this could risk felting
Leave to soak - anywhere from about 10 minutes to half an hour should do
Take your knits out of the water, and lay on a dry, clean towel
Be careful not to wring out - this will stretch and felt the fibres
Roll up in the towel, like a swiss roll
Squeeze tightly to get as much water as possible out
Lay out flat on a fresh towel - don't hang to dry
Once completely dry, store in an airtight container to protect from moths
