Care
It is recommended that you hand wash your woollen knits; do not machine wash. Cashmere is a delicate fibre so be very careful. Moths also love cashmere so if in doubt keep in a plastic sealed bag in your draws/wardrobes.
One of the many benefits of wool is that unless it’s actually dirty, you can just air it for a day or two and any smell will disappear. If you look after your wool well, it will keep you warm and cosy for years to come!
