Fr. Jan Joustra: How to Wash Natural Fibers | On the House #6

Have you put off washing a jumper because you don’t understand the faded laundry care symbols? Only for it to shrink when you do get around to it!

On this episode of On The House: Household Management Insights Podcast, host Gabriella Joustra is joined by her father, Jan Joustra, an Anglican priest and former lecturer of textiles and design. He completed a Bachelor of Art at the University of Tasmania and received a Certificate in Woven Textiles from the Hobart Technical College. Alongside his work in the Church, Jan has maintained an active interest in the arts, continuing to work in textiles and other forms of visual arts.

Jan shares the pros and cons of investing in clothing made from natural fiber. He also highlights some common mistakes people make when washing and caring for natural fibers, and how to repair holes and other problems in your favorite clothes.
