Washing the wool baby vest
Wash the wool spencer in the washing machine
We recommend washing the wool baby spencer in the washing machine, but only do this if you have a modern washing machine with a special wool programme. Use a special wool detergent to wash wool.
Hand-washing the wool baby spencer
The wool baby spencer can also be washed by hand, but be careful. You can easily damage the wool when wringing it or rubbing the fabric against itself.
Always use a special wool detergent to wash wool. A detergent without bleach or enzymes.
Drying the wool baby spencer
Lay the spencer flat to dry, for example on a drying rack, to prevent stretching. This way it keeps its shape better and stays nice longer.

Natural knitted wool products can pill when they are new. These are loose fibres that form into little balls. Use a device to remove these balls and the pilling will quickly decrease.
