Cleaning Up Accidents
    Accidents happen.  Most wool products can be gently hand-washed.  Make sure to avoid warm/hot water and to dry the item completely before use.

    Smaller accidents
    • Use towels to remove most of the spill.
    • Smaller accidents can be spot cleaned with a soft brush and soapy water. 
    • To remove residual stains you can dampen the stained area (use a little lemon for additional bleaching) and place in the sun.
    For larger accidents
  • Clean up as much as possible with towels.Fill bathtub or basin with cool/tepid water. 
  • Add a bit of detergent to the water or directly to soiled area.
  • Submerge soiled area and swish gently in the water.
  • Drain the basin, press water out of the bedding, and repeat as desired.
  • Avoid wringing or twisting the wet wool.
  • To remove odors you can dilute vinegar in water and pour through the soiled area.
  • Again, be sure that the item is thoroughly dry before using.

  • Older wool products can be washed in a large front-loading machine on a delicate/woolen cycle.  We do not generally recommend this, but it can be done if you use care.  We do not recommend dry-cleaning because of the harsh and toxic chemicals although our products can be dry cleaned.
