and they were perfectly fine.

They were the old wool and they do not look as though they had shrunk at all, and I use very hot water.

But, somebody is going to hear about my wool going through the washer in this house.

OMG!!! I stopped breathing. I totally stopped breathing!!! I'm glad they're ok. Whew.

 

[Sugarwoman]

Whew! What a scare!

Yeah I held my breath when I opened this thread :LOL
WHEW!!!!

Funny thing is that I was taking pics of my stash today and I mentioned that I was missing a cover. I got some raised eyebrows, "You're missing a cover?"

Hmmm.

 

[SEEPAE]

another reason I LOVE the old style covers! according to Tiff they are made prefelted, or non felting(cant remember which) and will never felt no matter what, and I totally believe it after all the stuff Ive put ours through!

you were lucky with that one!

I used to wash my older style ones in the washer. It was warm water gentle cycle but they never shrunk a bit.

Glad they're okay, mama. And don't be afraid to lay the smack down!

I have to say that I was holding my breathe too as I opened this thread! So glad they are ok, in my house no one touches wool but me. The price is pretty high around here if you mess with the wool. :LOL

ustasmom, I just looked at your stash!

Wow, you have an awesome stash!

Glad your covers are okay!

From what I've heard, it's non-felting/superwash wool---that's also why it's so soft.

 

[LoveBaby]

Whew!! I'm sooo glad they are o.k. And I agree w/ Mrs. Dimples...don't be afraid to lay the smack down so they know how precious wool is...'cuz what if it had been a Kiwi Pie instead of the already felted wool!

ETA: Gorgeous stash, mama!! I'm lovin' all the BBB!!

 

[Mama K]

Whew! Thank goodness it made it through ok!
