How to wash, dry and store your throw according to its material, so that it remains soft and keeps its colour. One rule comes before all others: the label sewn on your throw is authentic.
Openthe material of your throw. It appears in his name and on his file.
Washing. Machine washable at 30°C, delicate programme, with liquid detergent.
Drying. In the open air: the fleece dries in a few hours.
Avoid. Fabric softener, bleach and iron.
Wash. At 30°C, delicate programme, alone and upside down if possible.
Drying. In the open air. Once dry, shake it to restore volume to the curls.
Avoid. Hot dryer and iron: the heat flattens the curls for good.
Wash. By hand or in the machine at 30°C, delicate programme, gentle spin.
Drying. Flat, in the open air.
After drying. Run a soft brush in the direction of the hair to restore its appearance.
Avoid. The dryer, iron and strong spin, which tangle the hair.
Wash. At 30°C, delicate programme, with similar colours.
Drying. In the open air, spread well to limit wrinkles.
Avoid. Fabric softener and hot dryer.
Wash. At 30°C, delicate programme, reverse side.
Drying. Flat or hanging without clips, to avoid marking the hair. Smooth it with your hand in the direction of the hair.
Avoid. The iron placed directly on the velvet.
Washing. Machine washable at 30°C. For a fringed model, slip it into a washing net: they will not get tangled.
Drying. In the open air. Stretch it by hand while it is damp to restore its shape.
Avoid. High temperatures: cotton shrinks.
Wash. In a washing net, delicate programme at 30°C, gentle spin.
Drying. Lay flat on a towel. Hanging wet, it deforms under its own weight.
A pulled wire. Don't cut it. Iron it inside out using a needle or hook.
Avoid. Objects that catch: jewelry, closures, claws.
Wash. Rarely. By hand in cold water or on the wool programme, with a special wool detergent.
Drying. Flat, without twisting, away from any heat source.
Between two washes. Air it out: the wool refreshes in the air, and the smell of new wool fades in a few days.
Avoid. Hot water, tumble dryer and strong spin: wool feels and shrinks.
First of all. Unplug it and refer to the instructions provided with your model: this alone indicates whether it is washable, and how.
If the instructions allow washing. Remove the removable control, wash at low temperature, without strong spin.
Drying. Flat, in the open air. Never plug it in to dry and wait until it is completely dry before plugging it in again.
Avoid. Iron, dry clean and fold tightly.
Pills appear where the fabric rubs. This is common on soft materials, especially in the first few weeks, and it does not mean that the throw is damaged.
Two to three washes per season are enough for a sofa throw, more if it is used for children or animals. In the meantime, shake it and air it.
Only if the label allows it, and at low temperatures. When in doubt, air dry it.
The most common cause is fabric softener or too much detergent. Rewash it at 30°C without fabric softener, with little detergent, then shake it dry.
Yes: it is the natural smell of the fiber. It fades by airing the throw for a few days.
