GOOD TIP
VERY good tip passed. on to me the other day concerning all woollies, is to brush them with a stiff wire or sucde brush. This will re- move all those tiny bobbles that always seem to form. Not only do they spoil.the look of the woollie, but they also tend to dumage the rest of the garment.
