FAQs
Can I machine wash this sweater?
It is not recommended. The wool-and-cashmere blend is delicate and may shrink or lose its shape in a standard washing machine cycle.
Is this top itchy?
No, the high proportion of cashmere provides a soft, non-irritating feel against the skin.
How does the fit run?
The Lofty Top is designed to have a standard, fine-knit fit. It follows the body's natural lines without being overly tight.
What should I do if a thread snags?
Do not pull the thread. Use a needle to gently guide the loose thread back into the inside of the knit.
Is this garment suitable for year-round wear?
Due to its lightweight fine-knit construction, it is ideal for air-conditioned offices in the summer and as a base layer in winter.
Troubleshooting
Small pilling occurs on the surface
Gently remove pills using a dedicated fabric shaver or a cashmere comb, moving in the direction of the knit.
Garment looks slightly wrinkled
Use a low-heat garment steamer from a distance of at least 6 inches; avoid direct contact with the fabric using an iron.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Khaite Lofty Top maintains its shape and texture, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Dry clean only is recommended to maintain the integrity of the cashmere blend. If hand washing is necessary, use a pH-neutral wool detergent in cool water.
- Drying: Never wring the sweater. Lay it flat on a clean towel away from direct sunlight or heat sources to air dry.
- Storage: Store folded in a drawer rather than hanging, as the weight of the garment can cause the shoulders to stretch out over time.
- Compatibility: The crewneck design is compatible with a wide range of accessories, including silk scarves and delicate necklaces, though be cautious of clasps that may snag the fine threads.
