Washing / Finishing

When you have knitted the mittens and attached all the threads, wash with a little wool detergent in cool water, rinse and squeeze out of the water. In order for the mitt to get the right shape – use a mitt blocker or shape the mitt by hand when it is wet. Allow to air dry. Information about this can be found in the printed knitting pattern.
