Care:
Recommended washing depends on how you have used it. For most uses, feel free to simply throw into your regular cold wash.
- If you have used it for a heavy cold or emergency first aid then a pre soak is useful. Soak in warm water for 30 minutes with a drop of detergent. Let that absorb and simply rinse well or pop in with a regular cold wash.
- Line dry - the sun is a natural sanitiser.
- Iron - iron out crinkles.

When The Green Collective started designing HANK, they had a clear vision of what were the absolute non-negotiables, organic cotton was one of the non-negotiables for the following reasons:
- Essential when using something in such close contact with your skin.
- No chlorine bleach, synthetic dyes or fragrances.
- No (or very minimal) synthetic pesticides.
- Less energy and water usage to process.
Designed in New Zealand and ethically handmade using sustainable and fairtrade practices in India.
