That wool sweater goes perfectly with many of your skirts and slacks, but, oh is it itchy! The fix is to turn your scratchy sweater inside out and place in enough cold water to cover it. Add 1/4 cup white vinegar and let this sit for about 15 minutes. Drain, and now pour on 1/4 cup hair conditioner and work it through like you would on your hair. Let this sit for about a half an hour, rinse with cold water, and lay flat to dry. The conditioner will soften the coarse fibers. Lastly, when completely dry, place your sweater in a freezer bag in the freezer overnight to lock in the softness. Leave at room temperature before dressing!
