Handle with care: How to wash your knitwear properly
1. Always check the care label for instructions on washing your garment.
2. Handwashing is recommended (some washing machines can do the job on delicate settings), and always with warm water.
3. Soak your knit in a delicate wool specific wash that can also condition your wool. Soak for 15-20 minutes and turn gently with hands. Lay flat on a clean towel and press water out, avoid wringing or twisting. Lay the garment flat to dry. Once dry, fold and store in a cool, dry place.
4. Maintain the longevity of your knit and keep pilling at bay with a sweater stone, available from Max ($20). Avoid over de-pilling as this can lead to holes.
