Frequency of changing thin woollen sweaters in different countries. Per cent.Woollen sweaters are delicate, and many of them are washed by hand.

The figure also shows that the Norwegians are most likely to wash theirwoollen sweaters in somewhat warmer water.2.4.7 Thin socksThe pattern is more or less the same for all four countries. It is most commonto wear socks once before washing them. This is the pattern for 91 % of theSpanish respondents, closely followed by the respondents in the Netherlands(84 %).
