CARE OF BLANKETS
We make functional timeless pieces which we hope will be used every day and cherished for years to come.
Here are some quick tips on how to care for them:
Cleaning:
We recommend professional dry cleaning for all our blankets and cushions. There are now Eco dry cleaning options available, so have a look in your local area for recommendations.
Pressing:
As they are 100% wool, any folds in your blankets should drop out fairly quickly. If you want to hasten the process you can place a damp cloth (a clean cotton or linen tea-towel is perfect) over the surface of the blanket and then press gently through the damp cloth with a warm iron.
Avoiding Clothes Moths:
Clothes moths love dark and undisturbed spaces. In order to deter them, we would recommend very gently shaking your blankets and plumping your cushions regularly. You will probably find that you are doing this in any case as you make your bed or tidy your sofas and armchairs. For longer term storage please see below. There are also many different types of moth repellent on the market.
Storage:
Blankets should clean and dry before they are put into long term storage. Wrap your items appropriately in a sealed bag or container to protect them from clothes moths and dust.
