How to care for cashmere

Cashmere asks for very little: gentle washing, flat drying, and folded storage.

Wash cold with a mild wool detergent and never wring. Press out water in a towel, reshape, and dry flat away from heat.

Some light pilling is natural in the first weeks of wear. Remove it gently with a cashmere comb rather than pulling.

Rest your knitwear between wears, and store it folded with cedar or lavender rather than on hangers.
