To take care of your finished objects the best method is to wash by hand (even though my superwash yarns can be put in the washing machine on the wool/gentle cycle). Wash in slightly warm water with a small drop of shampoo or conditioner (yes – the stuff you use in your hair!). Just let the yarn ease itself into the water and then soak for 20-30mins. Pull the object out of the water and let as much as you can drain away, do not wring or squeeze, then gently wrap in a towel to pull away as much water as you can. Finally lay flat to dry.
