Most wool throws do not need regular washing. Wool is naturally breathable and resistant to odour, so airing and gentle care are usually all that’s required.

For small marks, spot clean with a damp cloth.

Merino and Gotland wool throws should be dry cleaned only.

👉 For full guidance, see our Wool Throw Care Guide.

Only if the care label specifically allows it.

Some wool throws can be machine washed on a cool wool cycle (20°C or less) using a wool-safe detergent and a slow spin.

Merino and Gotland wool throws should not be machine washed.

👉 Our Wool Throw Care Guide explains when washing is – and isn’t – necessary.

Very rarely.

Wool naturally repels dirt and odour, so frequent washing isn’t recommended. Regular airing will keep your throw fresh and help it last longer.

This low-wash approach is part of a more considered, sustainable way of caring for wool.

Airing.

Shake gently and hang outside on a dry, breezy day, or drape over a bannister or rail indoors. Wool releases absorbed moisture and odour naturally when exposed to fresh air.

Only a wool-safe detergent if washing is permitted.

Avoid:

• Biological detergents
  
• Bleach
  
• Fabric softener
  

These damage the wool fibres and strip away natural oils.

No. Wool throws should never be tumble dried.

Always dry flat or over a rail, away from direct heat.

The terms blanket and throw are often used interchangeably by many people, but here at Country Mouse, a throw has tassels and a blanket has a stitched edge.
