Troubleshooting

Wool pilling

Minor pilling is natural with wool. Use a fabric shaver or fine-tooth comb gently to remove pills. Avoid excessive rubbing during wear and washing.

Sweater losing shape

Ensure the sweater is laid flat to dry after washing. Avoid hanging it when wet. Store folded rather than hung.

Color fading

Wash inside out in cold water with a mild detergent specifically for wool. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
