Below is Lisa’s guide to how she makes sure her cashmere pieces are cared for and last.
- Hand wash is always best. Rise thoroughly and press out any excess water. Lay and shape garment flat on dry towel or gently roll up to absorb excess water. One a fresh towel, lay the garment flat to dry in its natural shape. It will look like new!
- You can use the machine - on a gentle cycle with delicate wash. Lisa recommends using The Laundress Wool & Cashmere Shampoo or Woolite. Turn the sweater inside out and wash in COLD water, either alone, or with like colours.
- Get rid of any pills that occur naturally by gently brushing the garment in one direction using a sweater stone for heavier gauges or a sweater comb for finer Weaves
- To store your cashmere, it is best to fold [rather than hang] to keep its shape.
