FAQs

Is this cardigan suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the Merino Wool blend provides significant warmth and is excellent for colder temperatures. For extremely cold conditions, it can be layered with additional warm clothing.

How often should I wash my Merino Wool cardigan?

Merino wool is naturally odour-resistant and doesn't require frequent washing. Spot clean minor stains and air out the garment between wears. Washing only when necessary helps preserve the fibres.

Can I machine wash this cardigan?

It is recommended to hand wash or use a very gentle machine cycle with cold water and a wool-specific detergent. Always check the care label on the garment for specific instructions.

How do I store the cardigan to prevent damage?

Store the cardigan folded flat in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging, as this can cause stretching. Using natural moth repellents like cedar is also recommended.

What does 'ribbed hem and neckline' mean?

This refers to the textured pattern of elasticated knit bands found at the bottom edge (hem) and around the neck opening (neckline) of the cardigan. It provides a snug fit and adds to the garment's structure and appearance.

What other sizes or colours are available for the Tern Tide Cardigan?

This guide specifically details the Green, Size 16 variant. Other sizes and colours may be available from Seasalt Cornwall; please check their product listings for full availability.

Troubleshooting

Cardigan feels itchy

While Merino wool is generally soft, individual sensitivity can vary. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions, which can help soften the fibres. Consider wearing a thin base layer underneath if irritation persists.

Cardigan has lost its shape

Merino wool can stretch if hung for extended periods or exposed to excessive heat. Reshape the garment gently while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid machine drying or high heat ironing.

Pilling on the fabric

Some pilling is natural with wool fibres over time. Use a fabric shaver or a wool comb to gently remove any pills. Regular, gentle washing can also help manage pilling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of your Merino Wool cardigan, please follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. Use a wool-specific detergent.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean towel, reshaping it gently to its original form, and allow it to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, use a cool iron setting. Avoid direct contact with wool fibres; place a cloth between the iron and the garment.
  4. Storage: Store folded in a drawer or on a shelf rather than hanging, to prevent stretching. Consider using cedar balls or sachets to protect against moths.

Compatibility:

This cardigan is designed as a versatile piece to be worn over other garments such as t-shirts, blouses, or light jumpers. It pairs well with trousers, skirts, and dresses.
