Care Instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water

Use a mild detergent suitable for cashmere, silk, and wool blends

Lay flat to dry on a horizontal surface

Do not wring, twist, or agitate

Steam lightly at low temperature if necessary

Swatching Required

A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. This cashmere-silk-merino blend blooms after washing; sizing up needles by approximately 0.5 mm helps enhance softness and drape and may slightly reduce total yardage. The blend affects gauge significantly, so accurate swatching ensures proper fit and yardage estimates.
