Delhi Winter Guide: Hacks to Keep Woollens Soft and Fresh

Winter has arrived in Delhi, and it's getting cold!

This means it's time for cozy sweaters and shawls.

To keep your warm clothes feeling new, there are some simple tricks.

When you wash them, use cold water and be very gentle, like you're playing with a delicate toy.

If they smell a little funny or feel stiff, a bath in cold water with a bit of vinegar can make them soft and smell nice again.

Always lay your sweaters flat to dry, like a pancake, instead of hanging them, so they don't stretch out.

If little balls of fuzz appear, use a special comb or shaver to carefully remove them.

When you put your clothes away, make sure they are clean and dry, and store them in soft bags with things like cedar to keep bugs away and smelling fresh.

Finally, after you wear a sweater, let it breathe outside for a bit before putting it away to keep it fresh.
