cleaning your cashmere
How to clean your garment
We recommend hand washing your cashmere* as all washing machines vary, however if you’re fond of your machine, ensure it’s set to a cold, wool washing cycle.
To handwash, submerge in cool water with some of our cashmere wash, swirl and soak for 30 minutes. Rinse with fresh water, roll in a towel to remove excess
water and dry flat.
You only need to clean your cashmere after around every 10 wears due to its natural antibacterial properties.
maintaining YOUR CASHMERE
How to deal with pilling
Pilling or bobbling happens to all new cashmere in high friction areas such as under the arms. The pills can be easily removed with our cashmere comb, leaving your cashmere looking brand new again.
Our cashmere will only pill a few times initially and then settle once the pills have been removed, allowing you to enjoy your knitwear for many years to come.
storing your cashmere
How to store your garment
Use a spritz of cashmere spray and allow to dry before storing your cashmere.
Always store your cashmere flat to ensure it keeps its shape, folded in a drawer is perfect.
If your cashmere is clean and sprayed, moths will be deterred, however, they can still persevere! Storing your cashmere with cedar balls and in a cotton storage bag is by far the best approach.
*Check your care label, some cashmere is dry-clean only because of our detailed trims.
