✨ Ancient Wisdom for Natural Fibers
taking care FOR YOUR Hand-sewn GARMENTS
Like the skilled hands that once cared for precious textiles in Viking settlements, your garment deserves mindful treatment to maintain its beauty through time. Natural fibers respond well to gentle care, rewarding you with years of wear and increasing character with each proper washing.
Washing
• Use cool or lukewarm water for linen and plant-dyed fabrics
• Tepid water for wool to prevent felting
• Hand wash gently, avoiding agitation
• Choose mild, natural soaps suitable for each fiber
• Avoid modern detergents and bleach
• Rinse thoroughly in clean water
• For wool, maintain consistent water temperature to prevent shrinkage
Drying
• Never wring or twist any natural fibers
• Roll in a clean towel to remove excess water
• Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight
• Shape wool garments while damp
• Allow all pieces to dry completely before storing
• Plant-dyed fabrics should dry in shade to preserve colors
Storage
• Store folded in a cool, dry place
• Keep all natural fibers away from direct sunlight
• Allow fabrics to breathe naturally
• Avoid plastic containers that can trap moisture
• For wool, consider cedar or lavender for natural protection
• Iron linen while slightly damp if needed
• Never iron wool - steam only if necessary
Special Care
• Spot clean when possible
• Address stains promptly with fiber-appropriate methods
• Air between wears to maintain freshness
• Handle with clean hands
• Store away from harsh elements
• For plant-dyed items, avoid prolonged sun exposure
