Care Instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water

Use mild detergent suitable for delicate fibers

Lay flat to dry on a horizontal surface

Do not wring, twist, or agitate

Bamboo becomes weaker when wet, handle with extra care

Steam lightly at low temperature if necessary

Swatching Required

A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. Bamboo can relax and grow after washing, so accurate swatching is critical for proper fit. The smooth texture and drape affect gauge significantly, so careful attention ensures proper yardage estimates.
