Troubleshooting
Cardigan appears stretched or out of shape.
Ensure the garment is stored correctly by hanging it. If reshaping is needed, consider professional dry cleaning as they can often re-block garments.
Pilling on the wool surface.
Minor pilling can be gently removed with a fabric shaver or by carefully picking off small balls of fiber. Avoid excessive rubbing.
Color transfer from buttons or fabric.
This is rare but possible with new garments. Ensure the cardigan is kept separate from light-colored items during its first few wears, especially if exposed to moisture. Professional dry cleaning should also address this.
