How to wash woollens- winter care #ezeecares

Hey everyone

With winters comes the great task of taking care of woolens and the most important and daunting task is washing, I am always scared to wash my woolens as many many times in the past they have come out deformed. Thankfully for the last two years I have been following a process of washing which is working 100%, also thanks to my uncle’s great tips who is in the dry cleaning business, so today I thought of sharing it here but before that i want to share a story, In the first winter after my sisters marriage her mom in law asked her if she knew how to wash woollens and she very easily said yes, thinking whats the big deal, so she was given the responsibility to wash her father in laws favourite sweater, to everyones horror it came out half its size as i used the normal soap to wash!!!!! Now to the tips:

Hand wash/ dry clean- it's fine to hand wash unless the wash care instruction says dry clean only.

What to wash woollens with- This is really the main deal, powder detergents no matter how expensive contain soda which is very corrosive and robs off colour and style from our favorite woolens  and after losing many of my favourite knits in the wash I was quite frightened by the thought of washing my woolens,  luckily my dear uncle came to my rescue and suggested Godrej Ezee, and since then woolen care has been a breeze, the packaging is very convenient  to use and store and there are many easy to choose size options,  Ezee being a zero soda formula cleans gently and the new Godrej Ezee is pH neutral in built fabric conditioner that gives woolens a very pleasant fragrance, is even better. Good aroma is very important as our mind associates good smell as clean and fresh and also of course it also helps in easy storing of woolens. I literally swear by their tagline 'Ragdo mat, take it ezee'

How to wash woollens- Soak the woollens in a bucket of cold water add some GodrejEzee and then rinse gently after 30 mins.

After wash- Never wring or hang your woolens or the weight of the water will make them loose their shape. Just lay them flat on a towel and gently squeeze the water and then lay flat to dry in shade. 

Ironing- if not needed, not ironing is better but if you have to make sure the iron setting is changed to wool.

I really hope you can make use of the above tips and product recommendation to not only keep your woolens style and colour but also their warmth.
