Make your own woollen clothes wash

We’ve all splashed out and bought the wool wash before but it turns out, you don’t need to spend the money. In fact you can make it with things you have at home!

We have found this simple wool washing recipe that is both cheap to make and very effective.

You will need:

  • 2 cups of grated soap (any type will do)
  • 1/2 cup of methylated spirits
  • 1 tbsp eucalyptus oil
  • 1 cup of hot water

Add all ingredients into a jar and mix well. Use 1-2 tablespoons per wash and make sure to wash on a gentle, warm wash cycle.

Do you have any homemade recipes you use to keep your clothing clean?
