Troubleshooting
Cape feels stiff after washing
This can happen with wool blends. Try re-washing by hand in cold water with a small amount of wool-specific conditioner, then lay flat to dry as usual. Avoid harsh detergents.
Self-tie fastening is difficult to secure
Ensure the fabric is smooth before tying. If the fabric is slippery, try a double knot or a different tying technique. Ensure the fabric has not been over-softened by washing.
Noticeable wrinkles
Hang the cape in a steamy bathroom for a short period to allow wrinkles to fall out. Alternatively, use a cool iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth.
