Hello, Wooliie family! We hope you and your furry companions are having an incredible day. If you're reading this, it likely means you're the proud owner of a beautiful, handmade pet product from Wooliie - or perhaps you're considering adding one to your collection. Either way, you're in the right place!
Wooliie is known for creating some of the finest handmade pet products, crafted lovingly by skilled artisans in Nepal. Our toys, beds, vests, balls, sweaters, and blankets are woven from 100% virgin wool, with our blankets and sweaters boasting the added luxury of 100% Merino wool. Plus, the natural plant dyes we use to make our products as unique as your beloved pet.
In today's blog post, we'll guide you on how to clean and care for these woolen treasures. Remember, wool is a natural fiber, and it requires a bit of tender, loving care to keep it looking and feeling its best.
Cleaning Your Wooliie Products
While it's a common belief that wool products are difficult to clean, that's not the case at all. Here are our top tips for cleaning your Wooliie products.
Spot Cleaning: For minor spills and stains, spot cleaning is a good first approach. Use a damp cloth with mild, wool-friendly detergent. Gently blot the affected area – don't rub, as it could cause the wool fibers to felt and mat together.
Hand Wash: For larger stains or a more thorough cleanse, you can hand wash our products. Fill a basin with lukewarm water (not hot – wool can shrink in high temperatures) and a squirt of wool-safe detergent. Let your Wooliie product soak for 10 minutes before gently squeezing the soapy water through the wool. Do not twist or wring the product, as it can distort the shape.
Rinsing and Drying: Rinse thoroughly under lukewarm water until the water runs clear. To dry, lay the item flat on a clean, dry towel, roll up the towel, and gently press to remove excess water. Unroll and allow the item to dry naturally in a flat position. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, which can shrink wool.
Caring for Your Wooliie Products
Proper care can extend the life of your Wooliie products and keep them looking like new.
Regular Air Outs: Wool has a fantastic natural ability to self-clean, and airing out your product can often remove light odors and restore freshness.
Avoid Extreme Temperatures: High heat can cause wool fibers to shrink, and freezing temperatures can make them brittle. Store your Wooliie products at room temperature, and avoid putting them near radiators, heaters, or in the freezer.
Protect From Moths: Since wool is a natural material, it can attract moths. Cedar chips or lavender sachets can be an excellent natural deterrent, and regular use and cleaning of your Wooliie products will also help keep moths at bay.
Storage: If you're putting away your Wooliie products for an extended period, clean them first to remove any residue that could attract pests. Store them in a breathable bag, like cotton, to protect them from dust but still allow air circulation.
With the right care, your Wooliie products will continue to be a source of comfort and joy for your furry friend for many years to come. If you have more questions about caring for your Wooliie items, don't hesitate to reach out to us.
