FAQs
Can I put this vest in the tumble dryer?
No. The high heat of a tumble dryer can shrink wool fibers and cause the garment to lose its shape. Always air dry flat.
Does the vest run true to size?
Yes, it is designed with a standard regular fit. If you prefer a more oversized, relaxed look for layering, you may consider sizing up.
Is this vest suitable for sensitive skin?
Since it is made from wool, those with extreme sensitivity to natural fibers may prefer to wear it over a long-sleeved shirt rather than directly against the skin.
How do I store the vest in the summer?
Clean the vest thoroughly, fold it, and place it in a breathable garment bag with cedar or lavender to protect it from moths.
Can I wear this over a dress?
Absolutely. It creates a trendy, layered silhouette when worn over a fitted midi dress.
Troubleshooting
Visible pilling on the surface after use
Gently use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to remove the pills without damaging the knit structure.
Garment feels slightly misshapen after washing
Lay the vest flat on a towel while damp and gently reshape it to its original dimensions before allowing it to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Joules Holly Knitted Vest remains in pristine condition, prioritize gentle care. Because it is constructed from wool, it is highly recommended to hand wash in cool water using a wool-specific detergent or seek professional dry cleaning. Avoid hanging the vest on a hanger for long-term storage, as the weight of the wool can cause the shoulders to stretch; instead, fold it flat in your drawer. For styling compatibility, the regular fit ensures it works well with most standard-collar shirts and light blouses, but avoid pairing it with excessively bulky under-layers to prevent bunching around the armholes.
