FAQs

What does 'felted merino wool' mean?

Felted merino wool refers to merino wool that has undergone a process of heat, moisture, and agitation, causing the fibers to interlock and create a denser, softer, and often more durable fabric. It typically has a slightly more compact and uniform feel than non-felted wool.

Is the Ami de Coeur Sweater true to size?

The sweater is a unisex design. While specific fit can vary by individual, the product description provides center back lengths (e.g., 64 cm for M, 58 cm for XS). It's recommended to compare these measurements to a sweater you already own for the best fit.

How do I prevent pilling?

Pilling is hard to completely avoid with wool, but you can minimize it by reducing friction. Wash your sweater less frequently, turn it inside out when washing, and avoid rubbing it against rough surfaces. Use a wool comb or fabric shaver for existing pills.

Can I wear this sweater in warmer weather?

Merino wool is known for its temperature-regulating properties. While primarily designed for cooler temperatures, its breathability can make it comfortable in transitional weather. However, it might be too warm for hot summer days.

What is the significance of the 'Ami de Coeur' motif?

The 'Ami de Coeur' (Friend of the Heart) is the signature logo of AMI Paris, created by founder Alexandre Mattiussi. It represents friendship, love, and joy, and is often a stylized version of his initials.

Is this sweater prone to stretching?

Like most knitwear, this sweater can stretch if improperly stored or hung for extended periods. Always fold and store it flat to help maintain its original shape.

Troubleshooting

Sweater has shrunk after washing.

This often occurs due to hot water or machine drying. Always hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry to prevent shrinkage. Gently try to reshape it while damp.

Pilling has appeared on the surface.

Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool due to friction. Use a specialized fabric shaver or a wool comb to carefully remove the pills without damaging the fabric.

Sweater feels scratchy or lost its softness.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent. A lanolin-rich wool wash can help restore softness. Avoid using fabric softener, which can sometimes coat and stiffen wool fibers.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Treat stains promptly with a wool-safe stain remover. Gently blot, do not rub. For persistent stains, professional dry cleaning is recommended.

Sweater has stretched out of shape.

Avoid hanging your sweater; always fold and store flat. When washing, gently reshape it while damp before laying flat to dry.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial to maintain the quality and longevity of your felted merino wool sweater.

  1. Read the Label: Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.
  2. Washing: Hand wash cold with a wool-specific detergent or dry clean. Do not use hot water or harsh chemicals, as this can cause shrinkage or damage.
  3. Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water; do not wring. Lay flat on a clean, dry towel to air dry. Reshape the sweater to its original dimensions while damp. Avoid hanging to dry, as this can stretch or distort the fabric.
  4. Storage: Fold your sweater and store it flat to prevent stretching. Avoid hanging for extended periods. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  5. Pilling: Minor pilling is common with wool. Use a fabric shaver or a wool comb to gently remove pills.
  6. Stain Treatment: Address stains immediately by gently blotting with a clean cloth and a small amount of wool-safe stain remover. Avoid rubbing vigorously.
