Soak
Soak Wash is an excellent choice for cleaning knitted and crocheted garments due to its gentle, no-rinse formula that effectively cleans delicate fibers without damaging them. Designed specifically for items made from materials like merino wool, alpaca, and silk, Soak Wash helps maintain the softness and integrity of the yarn, preventing pilling and wear. Available in a variety of pleasant scents and eco-friendly, biodegradable ingredients, it’s safe for both your garments and the environment. The simple application process—just soak the item in a basin of lukewarm water with a small amount of Soak Wash—makes it easy to care for your cherished handmade pieces, keeping them fresh and in great condition.
