Tools Tuesday: The Laundress

Tools Tuesday: The Laundress

There’s a new arrival in space this week; we are so happy to announce we are now stocking wool washes from The Laundress to help keep your hand knits looking their absolute best.

Founders Gwen Whiting and Lindsey Boyd met while in the Fiber Science, Textile and Apparel Management and Design program at Cornell, and embarked on careers in the fashion industry. Navigating the challenges of their career wardrobes, the pair realized that so many of their dry clean only clothes were perfectly served by hand washing. Since 2002 Gwen and Lindsey have been researching and perfecting their own line of high quality, all-natural and non-toxic laundry products. Their collection has expanded to include all the tools and products to keep your beloved garments and home clean and fresh. Free from most allergens and toxins, the Laundress takes care of 90% of your dry cleaning needs with their super concentrated formulas.

We’re welcoming their Wool and Cashmere Shampoo and Spray our collection of care products. Cedar essentials oils provide a delicate fragrance to the Wool and Cashmere Shampoo, making this cleanser a natural moth-repellent. Formulated for wool and cashmere, these cleaners are formulated to take care of natural animal fibers, lifting dirt while preserving natural lanolin oils and keeping your garments soft. Just two capfuls are all you need for most garments, but you can use the shampoo with your washing machine’s delicate cycle. Use the Wool and Cashmere Spray to freshen your garments between washes. Like the shampoo, the spray uses cedar to keep moths off your clothes, but is a non-toxic freshening spray for blankets, sweaters, and hats, or any other woolens in your closet.
