FAQs

Is this cardigan true to size?

The Copperhouse Cardigan features a relaxed fit. Most users find it fits true to size, but if you prefer a more tailored look, you may want to consider your standard size.

Can I put this cardigan in the tumble dryer?

No, never tumble dry this wool garment as high heat will cause it to shrink significantly and lose its shape.

What is the best way to store it to prevent moths?

Store your clean, dry cardigan in an airtight garment bag or container with cedar blocks or lavender sachets.

What if I get a snag in the knit?

Do not cut the snag. Use a crochet hook or a dull needle to carefully pull the loose thread through to the inside of the garment and secure it.

Does the Fair Isle pattern affect the thickness of the material?

The Fair Isle technique involves carrying extra yarn through the back of the knit, which often makes these areas slightly thicker and warmer than the single-color sections.

Troubleshooting

The garment feels scratchy against the skin

Wear a soft long-sleeve base layer underneath to act as a barrier between your skin and the wool fibers.

The cardigan has become misshapen after washing

Lay the damp garment flat and gently reshape it to its original measurements before letting it dry completely.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality wool material provides excellent insulation
  • Timeless Fair Isle pattern suits many different outfits
  • Relaxed fit allows for easy layering
  • Ribbed trims help maintain garment structure over time

Cons

  • Wool requires gentle hand washing or specific delicate cycles
  • Not suitable for those with sensitivities to pure wool textures
  • May require extra care to prevent pilling over extended use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Copperhouse Cardigan stays in pristine condition, avoid machine washing on standard cycles, which can cause felting and shrinkage.

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash in cool water using a gentle wool-specific detergent. Do not soak for long periods.
  2. Drying: Gently squeeze excess water out without wringing the fabric. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean towel to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent misshaping.
  3. Storage: Always store your wool knitwear folded flat rather than on a hanger, as hanging can cause the weight of the wool to stretch the shoulders out of shape.
  4. Pilling: If minor pilling occurs, use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove surface fuzz, taking care to follow the direction of the knit.
