Washing instructions:Machine washable on a wool cycle, max 30°C. Dry flat. We recommend to use Texelana Wool Detergent. Always check the garment's label for washing instructions.

Wool is antibacterial and odor-resistant. Therefore, wool clothing doesn't need to be washed often. Hang the garment outside occasionally to freshen it up. If you do want to wash the garment, we recommend Texelana Wool Detergent.

Check the garment's care label for washing instructions. Many of our wool garments are machine washable on a wool cycle up to 30°C. Then lay flat to dry. When hand washing, never rub vigorously to prevent felting.

If you treat your wool garment as described above, it will not only stay looking better and last longer, but you'll also help the environment by airing it out instead of washing it.

Storing woolen clothes

We recommend storing your woolen clothing clean, perhaps with a lavender bag; this will keep moths at bay. It's also best to store woolen clothing flat to prevent damage to the wool's elasticity.

Pills and fluff

Wool can pill or fluff with 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 (curl). Friction can cause the wool to pill and felt. Felting occurs when the hairs are bunched together by friction. In fact, every movement causes friction. You often find fluff/pilling on the sleeves and under the armpits.

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

Unfortunately, pilling and fluff on your beautiful (merino) wool clothing is unavoidable. We have some tips to help you delay this process and how to remove the fluff and pilling. For this information, please refer to our blog.
