To wash a wool-based scarf, it is recommended to wash it by hand. Soak the scarf in tepid water, as wool does not tolerate extreme temperatures. Use a gentle detergent or one specifically designed for wool. Do not let it soak for too. To dry, place the scarf in a cotton towel to absorb the excess water, but do wring or twist it. Lay the scarf flat to dry. To restore its softness and delicate touch, iron on high heat with the steam function. While placing it in the dryer is not advisable, you may opt for dry cleaning instead.
