Lambswool thrives with gentle care. Wash on delicates or hand wash programme at a cooler temperature. Combine with a mild wool detergent, allowing it to soak softly rather than scrub. Avoid twisting or wringing the fibres.

After washing, reshape your knitwear and lay it out flat to dry naturally. Keep it away from direct heat, as this can cause shrinkage. Allow the fibres to settle and return to their natural texture.

Between wears, let your knitwear rest to regain its shape. Store it folded rather than hung to prevent stretching, and keep it in a cool, dry place. Watch your lambswool soften and grow more beautiful with time.
