Care Instructions for an Irish Wool Sweater
An Irish wool sweater is the perfect item of clothing to wear on very cold winter days. It is a bulky sweater that will keep anyone warm indoors or outdoors. There are a few different styles to choose from including the classic cardigan, and pull over. These sweaters are made to last. The wool is a durable fiber that can last a long time without falling apart. It keeps the body warm by trapping in body heat and not letting it escape. Irish wool sweaters are made from individual wool fibers that are woven together into a strong yarn. The sweater is then created through knitting the yarn together. Traditional Irish wool sweaters are available online and through some clothing stores. Some stores only sell wool sweaters that are made in Ireland. These sweaters tend to cost a little more, but the craftsmanship cannot be beat. For those who are sensitive to wool, but who want to wear a heavier sweater, there are wool blend sweaters that are a blend of wool and linen or cotton. These sweaters will not itch as much as wool sweaters and a person should still feel comfortable while wearing it. Wool blend sweaters are usually less bulky, but can still keep the body warm. Caring for a wool sweater after purchasing it can vary. Heavy wool should be hand washed in cold water so the wool does not shrink. The wool absorbs water very easily which may be hard to dry. Using a bath towel, try soaking up excess water and then laying the sweater out flat to dry. This can take a few days depending on how much water is left in the sweater. If the sweater is put into a washing machine, it may shrink due to the heat. For Irish wool sweater blends, dry cleaning may be an option. Do not stretch the sweater while it is drying as it may become over sized. By laying the sweater flat on the counter or on a table, the sweater will retain its natural shape. Irish wool sweaters make great holiday and birthday presents for those who live in colder areas or who enjoy wearing sweaters that will keep them warm even when they are outside without a coat. Having a few good sweaters in ones wardrobe will help keep them warm during the winter or when traveling to colder climates. These sweaters come in a variety of different patterns that will compliment anyones wardrobe.
