FAQs

What is the best way to wash this lambswool jumper?

The best method is hand washing in cool water (around 30°C) with a wool-specific detergent. Gently squeeze out water and lay flat to dry on a towel, reshaping as needed. Dry cleaning is also a suitable option.

Can I put this jumper in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash this jumper. The agitation and heat can cause shrinkage, stretching, and damage to the delicate wool fibers. Always opt for hand washing or dry cleaning.

How do I deal with pilling on my wool jumper?

Pilling is normal for wool. You can gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or by carefully picking them off. Proper care, like avoiding excessive friction and washing correctly, can help reduce pilling.

Is this jumper suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, it provides lightweight warmth due to the superfine lambswool. For extremely cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer under a heavier coat or jacket.

What does 'Bordeaux Melange' mean for the color?

Bordeaux is a deep red wine color. 'Melange' refers to a mix of fibers or yarns of slightly different shades, creating a subtle heathered or mottled effect for a richer, more complex color appearance.

What is the fit of this jumper?

The jumper is designed with a regular fit, offering a comfortable and classic silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose, making it ideal for layering.

Troubleshooting

Wool feels itchy

Ensure you are wearing a base layer underneath. Lambswool can sometimes feel itchy to very sensitive skin. Washing the garment according to care instructions can also help soften the fibers over time.

Jumper has lost its shape

Reshape the jumper while damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat and agitation can cause shrinkage and loss of shape.

Pilling (small balls of fiber) has appeared

Pilling is a natural characteristic of wool. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by carefully picking them off. Consistent, gentle washing and proper drying help minimize pilling.

Color seems faded

Ensure the garment is washed in cool water with a wool-specific detergent and dried away from direct sunlight. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and longevity of your lambswool jumper:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cool water (around 30°C or 86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. Gently squeeze out excess water; do not wring.
  2. Drying: Lay the jumper flat on a clean towel, reshaping it to its original dimensions. Allow it to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  3. Alternative: Dry cleaning is a recommended alternative for preserving the garment's shape and texture.
  4. Storage: Fold the jumper for storage. Avoid hanging, as this can stretch the wool. Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with cedar balls to deter moths.
