Washing knitwear without ruining it

Lambswool felts when heat, water and agitation come together, so the damage is usually the machine rather than the wash itself. Cold water, a wool cycle with a low spin, and a mild liquid instead of powder will keep a jersey the size you bought it.

Dry it flat and never on a hanger. Wet wool is heavy and the shoulders will stretch out overnight and stay that way.
