How to remove stains and wash wool
Wool is a natural material from sheep and several other animals and it is the fine insulating hair fibers from the fur that are used.
The wool fibers do not withstand the same rough treatment as cotton, so you should just gently rub the stains with Lemon Soap. For particularly delicate garments such as cashmere and alpaca or non-washable wool garments, we recommend using lemon cleaning foam.
