The frame has no glass, to show off the texture of the wool, so take care when moving or handling the piece to avoid snags! Fluff and dust can be gently blown off the surface, or picked off carefully with tweezers.

Minor snags can be fixed by gentle ironing. Remove the painting from the frame and iron a medium-high heat for a few seconds at a time, while still attached to the back panel.

Wool care instructions provide by Longway Homestead:

Often we worry about washing wool because it has the ability to felt (or shrink) thankfully wool is naturally self-cleaning, so it doesn't need regular washing. We recommend reading through these washing tips and handling the washing of your wool items with care.
