Maison Kitsune Cardigan - V-Neck - L

Extra-fine merino wool refers to wool fibers that are exceptionally thin (typically less than 19.5 microns in diameter), resulting in a softer, lighter, and less itchy fabric compared to standard wool.

Yes, if your machine has a delicate or wool cycle and you use cold water. Always wash inside out and use a wool-specific detergent. However, hand washing is generally recommended for best results and longevity.

Never put it in a tumble dryer. Lay the cardigan flat on a towel, away from direct heat or sunlight, reshaping it to its original form as it dries.

The regular fit is designed to be standard and comfortable. If you prefer a very loose or a very fitted look, you might consider sizing up or down respectively, depending on your preference.

Avoid ironing directly on the patch. If ironing is necessary, do so on the reverse side of the fabric or use a low heat setting. Washing inside out also helps protect it.

Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that traps air, providing insulation in cold weather. They can also absorb and release moisture vapor, helping to keep you cool in warmer conditions.

Merino wool is breathable and moisture-wicking, making it suitable for transitional seasons and cooler summer evenings. For very hot weather, it may be too warm depending on your personal comfort level.

Reshape the garment gently while damp and lay it flat to dry. Ensure you are not wringing or stretching the fabric during washing and drying.

Pilling is natural with merino wool. You can gently remove it with a fabric shaver designed for delicate fabrics or by carefully picking off the pills by hand. Avoid excessive friction during wear.

Ensure you are using a high-quality, extra-fine merino wool. Itching can sometimes occur if the wool is not fine enough or if there are detergent residues. Follow the recommended washing instructions with a wool-specific detergent.

Avoid direct high heat when ironing and do not use bleach. Washing inside out can also help protect the embroidery.
