Spot Clean:

We can wash felt fabric. Handwashing is always the best and safest method for washing felt blankets, and other items.Felt is sensitive to water temperature and agitation.Use cold water, do not use hot water.Heat can shrink your felt, which you don't want. Mix the cold water and mild soap. And ever so gently rub where the stain is. To remove any soap residues, damp lint-free cloth with clean water and again, very gently wipe it off. Repeat as required.For drying, Do not wring. Instead, use a dry towel and press down to remove excess water. Let it air dry.If there is color in the water, don’t worry! It’s normal. The felt is simply releasing excess dye, and you will not notice any loss of color after the wash is complete.

Soak And Squeeze:

Dust off all the dust particles as much you can. Fill up cold water in a sink, or any container. Do not use soap. Dunk the felt product into the water, let it fully submerged. Take it out and easy does it' when squeezing the water out. You can also soak in water for a few minutes if needed. Continue repeating this felt product cleaning procedure as required.

Machine Wash:

Turn the item inside out, and place it in a Mesh Washing Bag. Felt needs to be washed on a delicate cycle. Select the woolens or delicate cycle on the washing machine, and make sure the water temperature is cold and the spin is on low. Add the appropriate amount of Wool & Cashmere Shampoo according to the machine and load size. Remove promptly from the washing machine to reduce creasing. Lay the item flat in its natural shape on a drying rack or clean towel. Do not put it in the dryer! Expedite drying by laying the item flat on a clean towel. With the item in its original shape, roll it up in the towel (like a sleeping bag) to remove excess water. When drying, avoid direct sunlight and heat sources, such as the radiator, because they can yellow, shrink, or damage woolens.

Never hang wet woolens:

To remove wrinkles, we recommend steaming for the best and safest finish.If ironing, use the lowest temperature setting and iron on the wrong side of the fabric (with the garment inside out). A pressing cloth between the iron and item will be safest.
