Care instructions:
Wool care is super easy! And the benefits of wool are unmatched by any other fabric. Wool is fantastic with its breathability, antibacterial properties and natural ability to hold liquid. Indeed, after proper lanolization, it is self-cleaning (as the the urine reacts with the lanolin to form a soap) for a week or two at which point it simply needs to be gently hand washed and/or re-lanolized.
Hand wash your wool undies in lukewarm water using a wool safe wash and little agitation. If the wash contains lanolin, let soak for 15 minutes. Lay flat to dry (after rolling in a towel and gently squeezing to remove excess water). Olive oil soap can be used for a simple spot cleaning wash.
It is also nice to use a concentrated lanolin every month or so to provide a fuller lanolization. Simply dissolve the desired amount of lanolin (usually 1 tablespoon) in lukewarm water. And follow the same directions as above.
