FAQs

Can I put this cardigan in the dryer?

No. Heat from a tumble dryer will cause the wool and cashmere fibers to shrink significantly and felt, permanently damaging the garment.

Is this cardigan itchy?

The addition of 20% cashmere significantly softens the touch of the wool, making it much softer than pure wool garments.

What is the specific color tone?

The color is Cedar Heather, which is a rich, earthy brown with subtle tonal variations characteristic of a heathered knit.

Does it fit true to size?

The item is sized as a UK 16, which corresponds to standard tailoring for a comfortable, regular fit.

How should I store this for the summer?

Clean the garment first, then store it folded in a breathable cotton garment bag or a drawer with moth-repellent cedar.

Troubleshooting

Small pilling of fibers on the surface

Pilling is common with natural fibers like wool and cashmere. Use a fabric shaver or a dedicated cashmere comb to gently remove pills.

Garment feels stretched after hanging

Always store knitwear folded on a shelf rather than on a hanger to prevent the weight of the wool from pulling the seams out of shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your cardigan remains in top condition, proper care is essential:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash exclusively using a mild detergent specifically formulated for wool or cashmere. Do not use bleach.
  2. Drying: Lay the garment flat on a clean, dry towel to air dry. Never wring or twist the sweater, as this causes fiber damage and garment distortion.
  3. Storage: Fold the cardigan and store it in a cool, dry place. Using cedar blocks in your closet can help protect the natural fibers from insects.
  4. Compatibility: This UK 16 size offers a classic, relaxed fit, making it highly compatible with a variety of base layers ranging from slim-fit turtlenecks to standard silk tops.
