Troubleshooting
Sweater feels itchy or rough
This can sometimes occur with natural wool fibers. Ensure the sweater has been properly washed according to care instructions. Repeated gentle washing may soften the fibers over time. Wearing a thin layer underneath can also mitigate this.
Sweater has lost its shape
Reshape the sweater gently while damp after washing and lay it flat to dry. Avoid hanging the sweater, as this can cause stretching. Ensure you are following the hand-wash and lay-flat drying instructions precisely.
Pilling has occurred
Pilling is natural with wool garments. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Avoid excessive friction on the fabric to minimize future pilling.
