Troubleshooting
Garment feels scratchy after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softener. Air dry flat away from direct heat. Hand wash gently if machine washing causes issues.
Snaps are difficult to fasten or unfasten.
Check that the fabric around the snaps is lying flat. Ensure the snaps are correctly aligned. Gently work them back and forth a few times; they may loosen slightly with use.
Item lost shape after washing.
Reshape the garment while it is damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid wringing or stretching the fabric excessively during washing and drying. Use the recommended wool wash cycle and temperature.
