Einband is a "fingering" weight lace yarn spun mostly from the undercoat of the sheep. What it lacks in water resistance it more than makes up for in softness.

Some people say that the einband is itchy, if you think so, you can wash it and put hair conditioner in the water, you don't need much of it.

Some say that the Icelandic wool should not be washed frequently, put the blanket outside and let the wind blow through the blanket. But if for some reason you spill something on the blanket, then you should wash it.

Care instructions
Hand wash only in lukewarm water (30°C / 86°F). Soak the garment in the suds for about 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly in lukewarm water. Do not rub or wring but gently squeeze the liquid through the garment. Dry flat, smooth the blanket out and pull gently into shape.
