Allure Fine Fiber Wash review from Jessie At Home

Allure Fine Fiber & Fabric Wash

Allure Fine Fiber and Fabric Wash is a great way to care for your yarnie goods. It does not need to be rinsed out so it is great for blocking. Not only that, but it removes soils and oders, so it is great for washing as well. I used the samples I had for washing handmade items on delicate in my washing machine (the yarn was machine safe) and it worked out wonderfully. I used the Woodland Mist scent and the clothes smell great!
