How to wash Your Crochet Items
Hand Wash Only (Recommended)
Hand Wash Only (Recommended)
Hand washing is the gentlest and safest method:
-
Fill a basin or sink with cold water
-
Add a small amount of mild detergent
-
Press the piece gently in the water — do not scrub, twist, or wring
-
Rinse thoroughly with cold water
Why: This protects the fibers and prevents stretching, pilling, or distortion.
How to Dry Your Crotchet Pieces
Lay Flat to Dry
Place your piece on a dry towel and gently reshape it.
-
Do not hang — this causes stretching
-
Do not use a dryer
-
Avoid direct sunlight while drying
Reshaping while damp is the key to keeping your original fit and silhouette.
