I did answer you last week about the synthrapol (I don’t use it).

After felting, I wash the wool garments on the wool or handwash cycle of my front-loader (with Kookaburra wool wash). To dry, I lay flat or hang on a stainless steel drying rack near the fire.

The wool jersey is going to give you a thin undershirt, sort of like those silk long underwear. You know? The interlock will give you the weight more like old fashioned long underwear that is thicker, more substantial. Both are nice (we wear both kinds). I like the jersey for PJs. My husband likes the interlock for nighttime and daytime; he wears it as both a baselayer and mid/outer layer. It is all soft enough for next to the skin. So it will mostly depend on your preference. It seems like for biking, you might want the thinner, but then again, it won’t be as warm. You could do a couple layers of the jersey and see how that compares to one layer of interlock for feel and thickness.

How exciting to be getting into garments! Our garments have been soooo successful that now I have friends asking me to make them clothes. There is nothing like this wool. It is fabulous.

Love, Wardeh

I appreciate your ideas of recycled men’s tshirts too for fabric and testing patterns.

Thanks!
