I've always wanted to know how to wash Muslin Wool
Up and Down really difficult to wash clothes in a way that doesn't cause them to shrink?

Dear Riru,

Thank you very much for your comment.

As for the question,
Wool has a moisture content of about 15% contained in yarn.
The dough with a high moisture content will cause shrinkage to some extent if it is washed with water.
(By the way, because cotton material is about 8% moisture content, this is not as much as wool, but shrinkage will also occur)

Those with lining (Polyester fabric)
The moisture content of Polyester = 0%, so there is a difference in shrinkage, which may cause lining to blow out.

For that reason, our company recommends washing with dry cleaning.

We hope for your reference.

In the streets, things that couldn't be washed until now are becoming washable, so (understanding that Mr. sousou has a decent attitude toward materials and sewing and is doing his best. ), I'm looking forward to it in the future.

Thank you very much for your comment.

SOU・SOU products as easy as possible for our customers.
However, Muslin Wool is a product that cannot be washed due to the characteristics of the fabric.
(Because it loses its shape when washed)
Sorry, please acknowledge.

Thank you for your continued SOU・SOU
