Troubleshooting

Garment feels itchy

Wool can sometimes feel itchy initially. Try wearing a base layer underneath, such as a cotton t-shirt. Washing according to care instructions may also soften the wool over time.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. You can try gently rubbing a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. If the issue persists, professional repair may be needed.

Pilling (bobbling) on the fabric surface

Pilling is a natural characteristic of wool knits. It can be gently removed using a fabric comb or a wool shaver. Avoid excessive friction during wear and washing.

Garment has lost its shape after washing

Ensure you followed the specific washing and drying instructions, especially laying the garment flat to dry. For minor shape loss, you can try gently reshaping it while damp and allowing it to dry flat again.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of the wool knit, follow these care guidelines:

  2. Drying: Reshape the garment gently while damp and lay it flat on a drying rack. Do not tumble dry or hang it, as this can stretch the fabric.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting with a pressing cloth. It is often best to avoid direct ironing.
  4. Storage: Store folded in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging for extended periods to prevent stretching. Consider using moth repellents in your wardrobe if storing for long periods.
