Troubleshooting

Sweatshirt feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and appropriate detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive heat during drying. Consider using a fabric softener on a subsequent wash if needed.

Drawcord is uneven or difficult to adjust

Gently pull the drawcord from both ends to even it out. If it gets tangled inside the hood, carefully use a safety pin or a bodkin to guide it back through the casing.

Ribbed cuffs/waistband losing elasticity

Avoid high heat drying, as this can degrade elastic fibers. Ensure the garment is not stretched excessively when drying or storing.

Pilling on the fabric surface

Pilling can occur with cotton blends due to friction. Wash inside-out and consider using a fabric shaver to gently remove pills. Avoid abrasive washing conditions.
