How to felt mittens

Keywords: felted, mittens,

In this DROPS video we show the mittens in DROPS Children 12-51 knitted in DROPS Alaska before and after felting.

Place the mittens in the washing machine with a detergent without enzymes and optical bleach. Wash warm at 40 degrees with normal spin but no pre-wash. After wash shape the mittens to the right size while still wet and leave to dry flat. If the mittens are too small, put it in water until they are thoroughly wet, and then stretch to right size. At subsequent wash, wash the mittens at regular wool programme.

Har sentrifugering noe å si for tovingen? Skal jeg tove i maskin uten sentrifugering? Eller kort sentrifugering?

Hej Anne, prøv bare at centrifugere, så det bliver tørt :)
