finally time to put the sweaters up!
Okay...It is finally time to put up the wool sweaters. I either wash them on gentle/cold and pat them dry in a towel-then I let them sit outside in the sun to dry; or I bring them to the dry cleaners. Before I store them I make sure to tuck my trusty cedar sachet into the chest of the folded sweater and then I close them up in a gallon size zip lock if they fit, or go to the larger size zip locks on the market. I always press all the air out before I zip them up.
Here is the recipe for my cedar sachets....
Go to the pet store and buy cedar chips-more space for the aroma to release, inexpensive too...a big bag is around $5.00
Buy these cool self closing large tea bags...I bought mine at the health food store.
Then just stuff them 1/2 to 3/4 full and iron close.
Lastly, tuck the sachets into the chest of the folded sweater and seal up in the zip lock bag and store for the season. Happy Summer!
