To protect the woollen products from moths, they should be washed at the end of the season, then dried well and stored in a dark place, preferably in a tight plastic bag.
Quality description
Merino wool/silk
Our merino wool/silk blend is for you, if you would like to have a little extra luxury in your daily life. The silk makes the material the softest in our wool collection, and the lightest as well. Silk shares the natural ability of merino wool to absorb moisture and protect against both cold and overheating.Read more...
The knitting technique is a 1/1 rib, which means that the fabric is very flexible and can stretch when worn. And the clothing regains its original shape when washed. Products made from merino wool/silk blend can seem a little transparent, because of the thinness of the material. They have to be washed in a wool program at 30°C and with a wool detergent.Be aware that this product is made from mulberry silk. This silk comes from China and is produced by silkworms. The silkworms’ cocoon are used to make yarn. To produce a long thread of a high quality the cocoons are boiled with the silkworms inside. Boiled silkworms are a delicacy in Asia and are eaten by local people. It would not be possible to produce the same high quality of silk if the moth was allowed to chew its way out first, since the thread would then be separated into many short threads. That is why this method is used.
