Just wipe and dab them with a wet cloth and they'll look good as new.
, and dribbled red wine on top of them to see if their pristine felted surfaces would take on any stains. Since the placemats are made of tightly felted merino wool, liquids bead on their surfaces rather than immediately soaking in, preventing stains from going deep into the material. All I had to do to clean them was to wipe and dab with a wet cloth, and they looked good as new.
I also performed a test where I let the tomato sauce hang out on the placemat for an hour to give it a chance to soak in. The fabric did appear to absorb some color. But I followed the care instructions on the website and lifted the mark easily with the help of a little dish soap. After that I just let them air-dry, and the wool did its natural moisture wicking thing, without any shrinkage or warping.
And I would remiss not to mention how nice they look on the table. Because they are so simple, and come in so many colors, they will look at home on a very contemporary and ultra-modern tablescape, as well as on patrician, heavy wood furniture. Cat owners be warned though: If you leave them out at all times they may become your pet’s new favorite spot.
We’ve become so conditioned to seeing machine-washability as the metric that distinguishes an everyday, practical home good from something more precious and delicate. It seems ludicrous now to think that a material capable of keeping fishermen warm while soaking wet would somehow be too fragile to weather a fork covered in tomato sauce. Yet that’s what I thought before testing these placemats. But wool placemats prove those assumptions wrong, and they look great doing it.
