*NLS - New level of sustainability

Ivanhoe of Sweden is proud to present this new line of products in a completely natural, undyed wool quality. This wool is the result of a complex selection of naturally available shades, which are mixed to create a range of natural colours without the use of dyes, chemicals or water. This authentic product is 100% natural and environmentally friendly.

Washing instructions

Wool is a nice material to make clothes from because it is antibacterial and odor-resistant. Wool clothing therefore does not need to be washed often. Hang the garment outside occasionally so that it can freshen up. If you do want to wash the garment, we recommend Texelana Wool Detergent . Never rub hard when hand washing, to prevent felting. Always check the label in the garment for the washing instructions. Always let wool clothing dry flat.

If you treat your wool garment in this way, it will not only stay nicer and last longer, but by airing instead of washing, you also save the environment.

Storing woolen clothes

We recommend that you store your woolen clothing clean, possibly with a bag of lavender; this keeps the moths away. It is also best to store woolen clothing lying down, so that the elasticity of the wool is not affected.

Pills and fluff

Wool can pill or fluff through use. This has nothing to do with the quality of the wool. Pilling is a natural phenomenon that is mainly caused by friction. Wool consists of many hairs with a natural crimp (curls). Friction can cause the wool to pill and felt. With felting, the hairs join together through friction. In fact, every movement causes friction. You will often find the fluff/pills on the sleeves and under the armpits.

New clothing may sometimes still have some loose hairs left behind after the weaving and knitting process.

Pills and fluff on your beautiful (merino) wool clothing are unfortunately unavoidable. We have some tips to delay this process somewhat and how to remove the fluff and pills. For this information we refer to our blog.

About Ivanhoe of Sweden

The family business Ivanhoe was founded in 1946 in Gällstad, a district known as the knitting centre of Sweden, where tradition and entrepreneurial spirit still live on. Several generations of experience and competence result in the continuous development of basic and functional clothing. Classic materials such as wool and cotton are always found in the collections, but they also work with new blends, treatments or knitting and weaving techniques.
