Choosing Soak wash & Flatter ironing spray
Choose Soak wash or Flatter
- Soak delicates wash: a no-rinse laundry wash for suitable handknits, lingerie, baby clothes and other delicate textiles. The 375ml bottle suits regular care at home.
- Soak mini sachets: compact portions for handwashing while travelling or keeping in a project bag. Check each listing for the pack contents and scent.
- Flatter ironing spray: a starch-free smoothing spray for ironing and freshening suitable fabrics. Choose from the scents shown or the Scentless option.
Finishing and caring for handmade projects
Use the garment and yarn care instructions to choose a washing method. Test colourfastness, follow the bottle directions and dry handknits in the shape recommended by the pattern. For Flatter, check the fabric's ironing temperature and test an inconspicuous area before treating a finished piece.
Is Flatter the same as Soak wash?
No. Soak wash is for laundering suitable items; Flatter is an ironing and smoothing spray. Choose the product for the job and check the individual listing before ordering.
