If you have a Poundshop or The Range near you, then I recommend this. Don't be put off by its cheapness, like I thought I might be! It's so thick you don't need much more than a few dribbles, but it smells wonderful and leaves cottons so soft. I assume it's the natural oils.
I bought two 100% merino wool jumpers from a well-known Scottish firm. I am pleased with them as they are really warm.
The washing instructions are the usual - ‘hand wash at mild temperature’ with an unusual (To me) additon. ‘ Can also be washed in a premium hair shampoo with conditioner. ‘ Has anyone tried this? If so what brand of shampoo? THeycome with all sorts of additions including oils .
I try very hard to care for clothes, but frustrated as the areas where they are sewn, especially around the neck, become itchy, and the thread feels hardened. It would be nice to see a solution to this.
Just that really. It’s nightdresses, t-shirts etc. They start of really soft and lovely for my sensitive skin and then gradually roughen up. I don’t use the usual fabric softeners as I don’t want to put them in the tray having had trouble with that and being told only to put directly in the machine. I use Fairy non-bio gel and have tried reducing the amount. I have put vinegar in the tray as it is liquid. Has anyone else had this problem? If so did you solve it? I have so many itchy clothes that are perfectly good but unbearable to wear so would be so grateful for ideas. Thank you.
