We recommend hand washing your woolen garments. Soak the garment together with a mild wool soap. Gently squeeze the water out of the garment by rolling it in a towel and then dry the garment flat on a dry towel. Feel free to shape the garment when it is added to dry, then you will get the correct measurements of the finished garment.
Yarn from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk can be washed on a gentle wool program (wool cradle) in most modern washing machines. All machines wash differently, and we cannot guarantee that the garment will not pill in your machine. We recommend knitting a test piece and washing it in the machine before washing an entire garment. Wool can withstand being spun, but drumming can make it felt. Always wash one garment at a time if you machine wash, and dry the garment flat on a towel. Yarn that has not been superwash treated must not be washed on a washing program other than the wool programme.
