- The process of making recycled fabrics is a labor-intensive process, which is why only less than 1% of clothing ends up being recycled into new materials.
- Making recycled fabric uses less energy, and water than virgin materials.
- It also reduces the amount of fabric going into landfill and keeps materials in circulation for longer.
- Recycled polyamide and polyester have all the good qualities of virgin fibers with a reduced environmental impact. This is why they are some of the most recycled fibers.
Wool doesn't need to be washed often because it's naturally stain, odor and crease resistant. To reduce washes, you can air your garment out, steam, hang it up while showering, use a delicate fabric refreshing spray or brush it. Spot clean stains immediately when they appear, because stains can be hard to get off after a while. Hand washing is preferable. If you prefer, you can also wash wool on a delicate or wool wash program. To protect the surface of the fabric, use a washing bag and turn the garment inside out. Use enzyme-free, pH-neutral laundry detergent. Enzymes in regular detergents break down protein-based fibers like wool. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, as they can damage the fabric. Dry your knitted wool flat; it might stretch if hung. Knits should be stored folded, as hanging knitwear can change the shape. Put cedar wood or lavender in your drawers and make sure your knitwear is clean when you store it to avoid moths.
