Care Instructions

 

The garment is handmade by you and they're made from 100% merino wool, therefore some extra cares should be taken to ensure longevity. 

 

🧼 Washing

Wool is a delicate natural fibre that can shrink or felt when exposed to water. That means your knit might lose its softness or shape if washed too often.

Spot cleaning is best – only wash if there’s a visible stain or smell.

If you must wash (but not recommending):

  • 🖐️ Hand wash only. No machines. No hot water.

  • Use cold water + gentle detergent (baby shampoo works too).

  • Soak briefly, gently swirl, rinse, then press out water. Never wring.

  • Lay flat on a towel to dry – no hanging, no sunlight.


🧺 Storage

  • Fold your knit – don’t hang it, or it may stretch.

  • Before storing long-term (like over summer), make sure it’s washed, dried, and clean to avoid moths.

  • Store in an airtight container with 🌸 lavender sachets or 🪵 cedar blocks to keep the bugs away.


✂️ Depilling

  • Pilling is totally normal for wool – it happens with friction.

  • Simply snip pills gently with scissors or use a fabric comb/Shaver to keep your knit looking fresh.
