What Are the Precautions for Cleaning and Maintaining Knitted Hats?
Knitted hats are commonly used for people to keep warm in cold weather. Knitted hats just need to be cleaned and maintained frequently because they may carry bacteria. If they direct contact with the scalp and facial skin, it will cause many adverse effects. And if we want to extend the service period of knitted hats, we must pay attention to the following cleaning and maintenance methods of knitted hats.
Cleaning method
1. Find a plastic basin and fill it with water
Do not wash with hot or warm water, otherwise, the color of the hat will fade, and some materials will shrink. As long as the amount of water can submerge the hat, if you just wash one or two hats, a plastic bowl is enough.
2. Pour in mild detergent
Stir evenly with a plastic spoon to make a layer of foam floating on the water. To wash wool knitted hats, it is best to use a detergent specifically for washing wool fabrics, otherwise, you can also use a mild detergent that does not contain additives such as bleach. Powdered detergent can be directly dissolved in water, so the washing effect is the best.
3. First dip a corner of the hat in the water
Before immersing the entire hat in, try to see if the color of the hat will fade and if the fabric has any adverse reactions. The cloth must be immersed in the inner part of the back of the head, soak for 2 minutes, so that even if there is any adverse reaction, the damage will not be too obvious.
4. Dip the entire hat in
If the fabric did not have any adverse reactions in the previous step, then you can immerse the entire cap in water. For regular washing, just soak the hat in water for 30 minutes. If the hat is stained with mud or stubborn dust, then you may have to soak overnight.
5. Rinse the hat
Take the cap out of the water, then turn on the tap water and flush the detergent with a larger stream of water. Remember to rinse with cold water until you can’t see any foam.
6. Squeeze out excess water
Squeeze the water dry with both hands, then place the hat on a clean dishcloth and gently pat until no water drips down. Never wring it dry, otherwise, the cap will be twisted and deformed.
7. Let the hat dry
Dry the knitted hat in a well-ventilated place, shape it, and then lay it flat on a towel. If you want the hat to dry faster, but the electric fan aside to blow it, but never turn on the hairdryer and blow it with hot air. Otherwise, the hat is easy to shrink. Similarly, hats should not be placed in direct sunlight.
Maintenance skills
1. Never wear knitted hats in the rain. Moisture will damage the material and damage the shape of the hat. Do not let the hat come into contact with oily substances.
2. Prepare a hard box for storing knitted hats. Put a desiccant in the box. Use some fillers to fix the shape of the hat before putting the knitted hat into it, and make sure that the hat is dry and clean.
3. After the knitted hat is taken off, don't leave it randomly. It should be hung on a coat rack or on a clothes hook. Don't put heavy objects on it to avoid distortion.
4. If the hat is worn for a long time, the inside and outside of the hat will be stained with grease and dirt, so it should be washed off in time.
5. Pay attention to the cleaning method. In normal cleaning, put the machine wash in a laundry bag as much as possible, and choose a gentle cleaning mode; pay attention to squeezing out water when washing by hand.
6. Pay attention to the drying method. It is best to use flat airing when drying, which is also conducive to maintaining the shape during the drying process.
7. Pay attention to the time of wearing. It is best to prepare a few more knitted hats, and change from quantity to quality. Wearing for a long time will easily lead to elastic deformation, especially for knitted fabrics, if they are in a tight state for a long time, the fibers will easily lose their elasticity and break.
