Lavender has been forgotten for a few decades in clothes care and storage, in preference for synthetic options. Possibly because lavender ‘smells like Grandma’. But what’s wrong with that?
A fantastic moth repellent, lavender can also be used to deter moths around your yarn, not just your clothes. Attach to clothes hangers in your wardrobe, nestle in your drawers 😉, or add to yarn storage boxes for reassurance that those flying pests will be sent packing.
