Troubleshooting

Sweater loses shape after washing.

Ensure you are washing and drying the sweater flat, carefully reshaping it while damp. Avoid wringing or hanging the garment to dry.

Pilling or fuzziness appears on the surface.

This is a natural characteristic of mohair blends. Gently brush the surface with a fabric comb or sweater stone to remove loose fibers. Avoid excessive friction.

Slight shrinkage after washing.
