Care tips for your pillowcase

The Cool Kate pillowcase can help you sleep with less pillow flipping and greater overall comfort. You should wake up less during the night and feel more rested in the morning.

The fabric is a unique blend of hemp and lyocell. 

If you're a heavy sweater you'll notice that the pillowcase stains over a few days. Fear not, though, the stains come out easily. You can use spray it with a pretreatment laundry spray such as a natural whitener or Oxyclean or Resolve. Throw it in with the wash with like colours.

To help avoid too much wrinkling you can shake it out and hang dry, or put in the dryer on high heat. Remove when just dry and smooth with your hands or iron.

One important point: DO NOT USE BLEACH! You may be tempted to bleach it when you see the sweat stains, but the stains will come out in a regular wash without bleach. Bleach will ruin the fabric and leave it mottled. 

Please DON'T use:

• Fabric softener or
• Dryer sheets. 

These products will coat the fabric and block the pores in the fibres which won't be able to do their job of wicking the heat away from you. 

We use dryer balls which work pretty well to soften laundry. Wool balls also help speed the drying time.
