Gave dh a Christmas jumper last year (complete with flashing lights Xmas Grin) which has been worn over the weekend but could now use a clean. But label says don't wash ! Ideas for how to clean / refresh please.

Have you got a steam cleaner? Maybe zap it with that.

I would charity shop it. Things that can't be washed easily cannot stay in my house!

Perhaps take out the batteries and then wash. If it doesn't work after washing and replacement of batteries it is still a Christmas jumper and a clean one.

I washed our light up tesco ones at the weekend, and both came through unscathed, I was amazed!
And the washing machine looked like a tiny, wet disco.... Xmas Smile
