Care Instructions

To keep your crochet heirloom blanket in perfect condition, follow these simple hand-washing steps:

  1. Gentle Washing: Use cool water and a mild, non-biological detergent to wash the blanket. Biological detergents can damage the wool fibers.
  2. Avoid Soaking: Do not soak the blanket, as soaking can cause it to shrink.
  3. Careful Handling: Gently squish the water through the fabric. Avoid rubbing, wringing, or stretching the blanket.
  4. Stain Treatment: Treat stains with liquid detergent and avoid rubbing, as this can cause the fabric to pill.
  5. Thorough Rinsing: Rinse the blanket in clean, cool water, using the same gentle squishing motion until the water runs clear.
  6. Removing Excess Water: Gently squeeze out excess water or use the shortest, most delicate spin cycle in your washing machine. Be careful not to stretch the blanket.
  7. Reshape While Damp: While the blanket is damp, gently reshape it to its original form, as wet wool fibers can easily stretch out of shape.
  8. Dry Flat: Lay the blanket flat to dry, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Never tumble dry wool items.

By following these care instructions, your blanket will remain soft, warm, and beautiful, for years to come.
