Washing Instructions  for - Mohair, Alpaca or Possum Wool Blankets

1/  Fill automatic toploader washing machine with warm water - but don't use machine to wash, handwash only. If you don't have a topload, wash in basin or bucket and handsqueeze water out.


2/  Put in 1 tsp of Softly or any other liquid soap for woolens.

3/  Soak blanket for about 5 minutes.

4/  Swish blanket with hands for a minute or so in the water.

5/  Spin on slow till you can hear the water has stopped coming out.

6/  Stop the spin manually and hang full length on line till dry.

       **Stopping the spin just helps prevent creasing**

(Don't hang on the line if the water hasn't been spun out. Instead layout flat on towels)

7/  If you follow these instructions you will not need to rinse further.

8/  It's safer
 not to dry clean - as drycleaners don't always no what to do with

   mohair blankets.

9/  Three main rules; Don't over soap and don't agitate!

 and don't hang the blanket on the line if the water hasn't been spun out.

(Instead layout flat on towels)
