The wool “falls off”, turns yellow, becomes hard, brittle and wears out faster if you use soda and alkaline soap; even a small amount of alkali is harmful.

Boiling water destroys wool and spoils its color.

Woolen and wool blend knitwear should not be rubbed, twisted, or wrinkled too much when washing: this will cause the product to shrink and lose its original shape.

Heavily soiled knitwear is pre-soaked. To do this, dissolve soap or powder in warm softened water - 30 g per bucket of water, immerse the products in this liquid and leave for 1 hour (for light contamination) or for 3 - 4 hours (for severe contamination). The contaminated water is then drained.

Dyed knitted wool products are usually washed without pre-soaking.

Thick knitted items can be washed in an aqueous solution of mustard. Take 100 - 150 g of dry mustard per bucket of water, put it in a gauze bag, dissolve it in hot water. This liquid, after cooling to 40 - 45 ° C, is used for washing. After washing, the product is rinsed with warm and then cold water. You can also wash dyed knitwear with mustard.

Then, carefully stretching, give the product its original shape and lay it on a linen to dry. Under no circumstances should you dry it by weight, as this will cause the product to lose its shape. Drying in the sun and near heaters should be avoided.

Unlike products made from other fabrics, knitted items cannot be washed using conventional methods. At improper care they may become deformed and their appearance will deteriorate. To ensure that knitwear does not lose its original shape after washing and does not become covered with pills, you should learn how to handle it correctly.

Preparatory stage

Before you begin, you need to properly prepare things:

  • The clothes are turned inside out.
  • Since the bottom of the product and the sleeves can stretch out during wet processing, they should be protected by threading a needle or any other strong and non-fading thread and stitching the problem areas along the edge with wide stitches. Pair the thread only after the product has completely dried.
  • Are your clothes stained or heavily soiled? This means that before washing, they soak it - pour cool water into a basin, generously soap the problem areas, and leave for 20 minutes.
  • Before washing knitted items, you should carefully study their label: items made from natural fabrics are washed in water at a temperature no higher than 40-50°C, those made from synthetic fabrics - up to 40°C. It is impossible to wash with hot water, because due to high temperatures the product may shrink.

Selecting a detergent

It is not recommended to use regular washing powder for washing knitwear - it does not rinse well, and delicate fabric may become damaged after contact with it. Several means are acceptable:

  • Soap solution. Laundry soap is rubbed on a fine grater and the shavings are dissolved in water.
  • Gel for washing delicate fabrics.
  • Shampoo. If special means If you don't have it on hand, you can use any hair shampoo.
  • Hard water can deteriorate the appearance of a knitted product; to soften it, use baking soda - about 1 teaspoon will be needed for a medium-sized basin.
  • Do not use bleach for knitwear. If it is necessary to make the item white, after washing it, rinse it in water with the addition of a small amount of hydrogen peroxide. A couple of tablespoons of salt or vinegar will help return faded fabric to its rich color - they are dissolved in a bowl of water when rinsing.

Hand wash

Hand washing is the best way to clean knitted items, since the risk of damaging the product is lower. The process itself is extremely simple:

  • A large container is filled with cool water.
  • Dissolve in it the appropriate detergent, add soda if necessary.
    Immerse the item in the soapy solution and leave for a couple of minutes until the fabric is completely saturated with water.
  • Having taken the thing in their hands, they begin to gently squeeze and unclench it with their palms. Movements should go along the product, and not across, otherwise the knitwear may become deformed. You cannot rub the fabric or try to remove stains and heavy dirt with a brush - after this, pellets will form on the knitwear.
  • After washing, rinse the item thoroughly, changing the water several times until the soap solution is completely washed out of the fabric. It is important that the rinse water is the same temperature as was used during washing - after contact with colder or hotter water, the product may shrink.
  • To make things soft, you can add a teaspoon of glycerin to the water when rinsing.
  • You cannot twist the knitwear to try to remove excess water. Before hanging clothes to dry, you need to gently squeeze them with your hands using gentle movements. Start from the top (the neck of a sweater, for example), moving to the bottom.
  • Then spread it on a wire rack over the bathtub so that the remaining water drains out. If there is no wire rack, spread a towel on the table, place the washed item on it, roll it up and wring it out. You cannot hang a wet knitwear item on a rope or hanger; the wet fabric will stretch greatly.

In the washing machine

Most modern washing machines have a mode delicate wash. It can also be used to tidy up knitted items, especially if it contains synthetic threads.

Clothes are fastened with all buttons or zippers, if any, and then turned inside out. Before placing items in the drum, it is recommended to place them in a special washing bag - this will protect the fabric from deformation. You should not wash a large number of things at once - when the drum rotates, they can intertwine and stretch out.

Afterwards, set the manual or delicate wash mode, select a water temperature of maximum 40°C, and either turn off the spin cycle completely or reduce the speed to a minimum. Activate an additional rinse cycle. A special gel for washing delicate fabrics or shampoo is added to the detergent compartment.

After removing items from the drum, remove excess water in the same way as after hand washing.

Drying and ironing

Knitted items are dried exclusively in a horizontal position. When the excess water has drained, the item is laid out on a special mesh dryer, carefully straightening it out. Another method is to use a towel laid out on the table. In this case, it will have to be periodically replaced with a fresh one, and the item will have to be turned over to the other side.

Important! During drying, clothing should not be exposed to direct sunlight.

If creases remain on the knitwear after washing, you can iron it. However, you need to remember that products made from thick threads or those with a relief pattern should not be ironed - the knitting will become flat.

The iron is set to minimum heat. Place an ironing iron - a piece of clean cotton fabric - on top of the item laid out on the ironing board; iron only through it. Do not put too much pressure on the device; movements should be light.

If the ironed item turns out to be wrinkled after storing it in the closet, you can lightly moisten it with clean water from a spray bottle, lay it out on the table, straighten it thoroughly and leave it for a while. After the moisture has completely evaporated, the folds in the fabric will disappear.

How to store

You can use various methods to store knitwear. The appropriate one is chosen based on the type and properties of a particular item of clothing.

Thus, products made from thick threads (sweaters) can be folded into a stack and stored in a closet or plastic container. In this case, you need to make sure that things made of denser threads lie at the bottom, and light ones - on top. There is no point in filling a shelf or container completely; it is advisable that air can circulate freely there.


It is convenient to store T-shirts and other fine knitwear items, rolled up, in a dresser drawer.
It is not recommended to hang knitted items on hangers. However, if necessary, you can do this so that the products do not stretch. This method is only suitable for sweaters; dresses cannot be stored this way, as they may stretch out:

  • the sweater is folded lengthwise so that the sleeves are together;
  • placed on a hanger so that there are sleeves on one side and the bottom of the product on the other (see photo).

To store knitted dresses, use only soft hangers, and the hem must be pinned to the area in the armpits - this technique helps to avoid pulling the fabric down.
