Caring for your handmade knitwear
Product Care
Washing
Knit & Crochet Products
All knit and crochet clothing need to be handled very delicately to prolong their life. Instead of washing them frequently, letting them air out is generally sufficient to refresh them.
When it's time for a thorough wash, gently hand-wash the product in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Avoid rough scrubbing and any friction; let it soak for 30-60min before rinsing gently with clean water. Gently squeeze out water without wringing, then roll it in a dry towel and press to remove excess water. Once clean, carefully shape your knit and lay it on a clean towel to air dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight.
Do NOT use a washing machine, even if it has a gentle or wool cycle, as it may damage your delicate hand-knits.
Do Not use a dryer.
Do NOT hang your knitwear as they may overstretch. Always opt for flat-drying.
Storing
Always store your hand-knit garments folded, rather than hanging them, to protect their shape and prevent over-stretching.
