    This is where I am naughty. I have always washed my jumpers with the rest. A cold wash with a light spin dry. The light spin dry isn't because I am worried about the jumpers but because the wetter the washing comes out the less ironing I have to do.

    Maybe I will have to do it by hand from now on.

    Can't add any more than the other guys have said, always hand wash your good wool stuff. I do mine in the bath with a eucalyptus wool wash, let it drain in the bath after its rinse then lay it on a board on a clothes horse
