Cashmere Care

CAShmere garments can be hand washed at home. Alternatively you can use a washing machine to clean you cashmere. If you’d rather have a professional do the job, dry cleaning is the best option for your cashmere.

Washing and drying by hand:

1. Turn the garment inside out.

2. Soak the garment in cold water using a mild detergent (do not use bio detergent). Let it soak for 5 minutes.

3. Press the garment in the soapy water. Do not twist stretch or rub.

4. Rinse in cold water. Gently squeeze it in large sections between your hands.

5. Flat dry on a towel, smoothening it into its shape. Do not dry in direct sunlight or heat source.

6. Iron lightly on the reverse side with a cool iron, do not use steam.

Using a washing machine?

If your washing machine has a hand wash cycle, feel free to use it. Place the garment in a laundry bag before putting it in the washing machine. Select the gentle cycle on cold water. Use a mild detergent.

Storage:

If you store your cashmere properly, it’s easy to keep it in excellent shape. Make sure your cashmere is washed before you store it for the off season. Place the garment in a muslin bag , and store it in a cool dry area. Do not hang your cashmere garments.
