How to care for a merino wool snood
Merino wool is a natural fibre that is naturally odour-resistant and far more resilient than it looks. With a little care, this snood will last for many years.
Spot-clean minor marks with a damp cloth
Hand wash only - if a full wash is needed, wash very gently in warm water with minimal agitation
Do not wring or twist - press gently between clean towels to remove excess water
Dry naturally flat or draped over a hanger, away from direct heat or sunlight
Press lightly with a cool iron if needed, using a pressing cloth
Avoid machine washing and tumble drying, which can cause merino to felt and shrink.
