What is Easywash?

Easywash is a brilliant innovation in wool care that works with nature, not against it. Using natural enzymes, this gentle treatment modifies the wool fibres at their surface, giving your yarn amazing washable properties while keeping its natural characteristics.

Caring for your Easywash yarns is delightfully simple:

  • Machine wash at 30°C
  • Use the wool/delicate cycle
  • No fabric softener needed
  • No worries about shrinking or felting!

At McIntosh and LANGYARNS, we believe that caring for your knits shouldn't mean compromising on environmental values. That's why our Easywash treatment is completely chemical-free and has earned certifications from Ökotex®, Bluesign®, and Reach. Now you can enjoy the pleasure of knitting, knowing you're making a choice that's good for both your projects and our planet.
