I would go to a yarn shop and ask for some wool soap and wash it by hand.<br /><br />I have a mirror that only looks good if I use a microfiber cloth with just water. No windex! No vinegar! Just water. Use a lint free cloth to dry if needed.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990275336629593898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5347184522447049272.post-39578500945762631322010-06-09T15:34:35.958-05:002010-06-09T15:34:35.958-05:00I really want a granny square blanket!
