FAQs

Is this cardigan machine washable?

No, due to the high wool content, machine washing is not recommended as it may cause shrinkage or damage. Professional dry cleaning is the safest method.

How does the regular fit compare to other brands?

The regular fit is designed to be true to size, offering a standard silhouette that is neither slim nor overly baggy, accommodating a comfortable layer underneath.

Can I wear this in the rain?

While wool provides some natural moisture resistance, this cardigan is not waterproof. It is best used as a mid-layer under a waterproof jacket in wet conditions.

What is the best way to store the cardigan during summer?

Clean the garment first, then store it folded in a breathable garment bag with moth repellents in a cool, dark, and dry closet.

Does the material feel itchy?

The cardigan uses high-quality wool designed for comfort; however, personal sensitivity to wool varies. Most users find it comfortable, especially when worn over a base layer.

Troubleshooting

Pilling on the surface of the wool

Use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to gently remove surface fuzz, taking care not to pull the threads.

Zip becomes stiff or difficult to operate

Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to improve smoothness.

Garment losing shape

Ensure the item is folded flat for storage rather than hanging it on a coat hanger, which stretches the wool fibers.

Pros and Cons

  • Ribbed cuffs and hem maintain shape and warmth

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment is made from wool, proper care is essential to extend its lifespan. Avoid machine washing, which can cause the fabric to shrink or lose its texture. Instead, it is recommended to dry clean the garment professionally. If minor spot cleaning is needed, use a damp cloth and a mild wool-safe detergent. When storing, fold the cardigan rather than hanging it to prevent the shoulders from stretching. Always store in a cool, dry place and use cedar blocks or lavender sachets to protect the natural fibers from moths.
