SOS

one of my favorite things from kiosk. handmade in germany since 1848 with tools powered by water turbine.

It’s no secret I like clothes. But I’m not a fan of dry cleaning – even the “eco-friendly” kind uses wire hangers and plastic bags and increases the cost of the garment throughout its life cycle. Does that stop me from getting ‘dry clean only’ items? Absolutely not! The key (besides cold water and not putting things in the dryer) is the detergent. I highly recommend Kookabura Wool Wash. It does have tea tree oil in it so you have to be OK with the scent, but it makes my woolens so soft and silky! It’s perfectly fine to use it on other fibers as well; I just think it’s especially good on animal based fibers.

just realized eley kishimoto has their own webshop!!! their ‘flash’ pattern is a classic.
