Care Guide

Handmade knitwear lasts for years when it is treated gently. A few simple habits keep every piece soft, warm and in shape.

1. Hand wash in cool water

Wash gently by hand in cool water with a mild, wool-friendly soap. Avoid hot water — it can shrink the yarn.

2. Never wring or twist

Press the water out softly, or roll the piece in a clean towel. Wringing stretches the stitches out of shape.

3. Dry flat, away from the sun

Lay the piece flat on a towel in its natural shape. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heaters.

4. Fold, don’t hang

Store your knits folded in a drawer or on a shelf. Hangers pull the shoulders out of shape over time.

A little extra care

  • Small fuzz balls (pilling) are natural with soft yarns — gently remove them with a fabric comb or by hand.
  • For baby rompers, wash before the first wear and use a gentle, baby-safe detergent.
  • Store knits in a breathable bag during summer to keep them fresh for next winter.
