CARE

Wash care

Cashmere fabric is made from a fine wool fiber which must be looked after to keep it looking its best. Cashmere garments are commonly dry cleaned but you can wash cashmere at home.

Follow these simple rules to keep your cashmere clean:

• Always wash in cold or lukewarm water, never over 40 degrees.
• Always wash garments inside and put scarves in a net bag.
• Use cashmere friendly, mild detergent.
• Gently press out the excess water after washing.
• Never rub, wring, stretch or hang the garment.
• Always dry away from the sun or any other heat sources.
• Always dry the garments flat.

Storage

Correctly storing your cashmere is as important as cleaning it. Follow these rules to keep your cashmere safe in the cupboard:

• Always make sure the garment is clean before you store it.
• Never hang cashmere.
• If you store the garment in a bag or container make sure it is breathable.
• Avoid moth damage by storing the garment near anti-moth agents or cedar balls.
