Wool is a magical fiber. Almost. You need to remember a few things about its care so that our blanket maintains its appearance for many years.
Our blankets are made of 100% New Zealand wool. Like any natural raw material, it requires special care to maintain its properties and durability for many years. Generally, the easiest way to maintain longevity is to avoid frequent care treatments. Wool has a way of... cleaning itself. It does not accumulate dust or dirt. It is enough to air the blanket regularly in the fresh air.
However, remember that it is 100% pure wool without artificial fibers, which is why it has special features:

- has a specific, natural smell - after all, it comes from an animal. The smell will disappear on its own after a few months, air the blanket regularly in fresh air;
- the blanket has a natural tendency to pill, to prevent this use a wool brush and any pills that have already appeared can be removed with a wool comb;
- Comb the blanket in the direction of the hair, after moistening it with water or water with added lanolin:
