Our road trippin once again takes us back to the magical forests of Småland, where my family has a cottage by a lake in the woods. It is from this area that our hunter green color “Hamneda Forest” comes. I know, sorry for being a tease … Hamneda Forest, along with our camouflage pattern, will be released this fall, hopefully around mid-late August, so keep on the look-out!! Oh, and btw, at the cottage, gender stereotypes for some reason always kick in – hence Max gets to carry all the luggage!!
I ran into a friend yesterday, who told me how a full thermos of coffee had spilled in his tote. He quickly threw it in the laundry machine and was astonished at how well it came out. We don’t normally recommend the washing machine, mainly because our heavy-duty, stiff cotton canvas will come out with wrinkles that can be hard to iron out. Also, the fabric will lose some of its stiffness due to the harsh treatment of the washing machine. However, we’ve given it many goes, and scrubbing it down with some soap or detergent really does the trick!
