How to Care for Tunisian Crochet Slippers

Care should always begin with the maker’s instructions because wool, cotton, acrylic and blended yarns respond differently to water and heat.

Clean gently

When no specific instruction is available, cool or lukewarm water, a small amount of mild detergent and minimal agitation are cautious choices. Avoid twisting the slippers, especially when they include flowers, beads or appliqué.

Dry in their natural shape

Press out moisture with a towel and dry flat, away from direct heat and strong sunlight. Store only when fully dry and avoid crushing decorative details.

Care requirements vary by product, so review the description of each handmade slipper and ask the maker when necessary.
