Washing wool sweaters

The container states that CLIMA cannot be washed with wool because it is alkaline, but since it does not contain any chemical ingredients, I tried washing it 30 times.

Washed wool sweater Uniqlo
3D cashmere V-neck sweater Material: 100% cashmere Care: Hand washable, dry cleanable



Washing machine: Panasonic drum type Course: Home cleaning Rinse: Changed from 3 times to 1 time (see photo)
Softener: None

Wash the sweater only and do not turn it inside out and put it in the net.



Drying: Dry indoors using a fan for 2 hours on a timer.

Dimension change Length 60cm (new) ➡ 59cm (washed 30 times)
Width 47cm (new) ➡ 46.5cm (washed 30 times)
It shrunk by about 0.5 to 1 cm, but since detergent for fashionable clothes also shrinks, I personally didn't feel there was any difference.



Personally, I felt that the feel of the product after 30 washes was no different from when it was new.

However, the first two times I used it, there was a smell like animal odor, but after the third time, it disappeared and became odorless, so I was relieved.
Also, these are the last two sweaters I've been using for many years, and they've been washed about 20 times without any problems, so I don't know if the Uniqlo sweater was affected by some kind of treatment. yeah.



I'm sure there are some people who are still worried, but if the contents of the washing label are the same, I would appreciate it if you could try it.
