Caring for Your Wool
Wool is a beautiful, natural fiber that offers warmth, softness, and long-lasting wear. With the right care, your wool garments can stay in top condition for years.
Understanding and Minimising Pilling
We love the luxurious feel and warmth of wool, and we want you to enjoy your wool garments for years to come.
While the complex nature of wool fibers means some pilling can sometimes happen, it can be significantly reduced with proper care.
Your Guide to Preventing Pills
-
Wash wool garments inside out to protect the surface fibers.
-
Skip fabric softeners, which can weaken the fiber and encourage pilling.
-
Minimise friction by avoiding excessive rubbing during wear (e.g., under crossbody bags or while layering).
Simple Solutions for Pill Removal
If pilling occurs, don't worry! Small pills can often be picked off by hand.
For larger areas, gently use a fine comb or invest in an affordable fabric shaver (de-piller) to refresh your garment and keep it looking its best.
