Wool underlay / underblanket for bed with rib structure – merino wool – 60x120cm

Maintain wool crib underlay

We recommend washing the wool crib underlay as little as possible. Ventilation is often sufficient to make the pad smell fresh again. Speaking of smelling fresh, a wool crib underlay is possible
have (sometimes a fairly strong) sheep smell when purchased. This will go away automatically, but if you find it very unpleasant, first let the pad steam in the mist or in a steamy room. For example in the bathroom in the steam of the
shower. Then dry the pad in a well-ventilated area.

Wash merino wool underlay

If an accident has happened and you cannot avoid washing the crib underlay, do this by hand to damage the underlay as little as possible. Wash the woolen crib underlay at 30 degrees with wool detergent. When necessary, leave the pad for a moment
to soften. Then lay it flat (for example on a clothes rack) to dry.

If you are going to wash it in the washing machine, follow the washing instructions on the label. Please note that if your washing machine is a bit older and does not have a special wool washing program, it is not suitable for washing wool. Older washing machines often first run cold water into the drum, which causes the wool to shock and shrink. Wool can also shrink from (too) cold water.
