FAQs
Is the wool material itchy?
This sweater is crafted from high-quality wool designed for comfort, though individuals with high sensitivity to natural fibers may prefer wearing a thin cotton base layer underneath.
Should I size down for an oversized fit?
The sweater is intentionally designed with an oversized fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may choose to size down, but most find their usual size provides the intended relaxed drape.
Can I put this sweater in the dryer?
No, you should never put this wool sweater in the dryer as the high heat will cause the wool fibers to shrink and felt, permanently damaging the garment.
How do I store this sweater during the off-season?
Clean the sweater thoroughly, then fold it neatly and store it in a cool, dry place, preferably inside a breathable garment bag or a drawer with cedar blocks to deter moths.
What is the best way to remove wrinkles?
Avoid using a hot iron. Instead, use a garment steamer on a low, wool-safe setting, or simply hang the sweater in the bathroom while you take a hot shower to let the steam naturally release creases.
Troubleshooting
The sweater has developed small fabric balls (pilling).
Pilling is common with natural wool; use a dedicated fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove pills from the surface.
The garment lost its shape after washing.
Always dry the sweater flat on a towel. If it becomes misshapen, gently reshape it while damp before letting it air dry in a flat position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your sweater remains in top condition, proper care is essential given the natural wool composition. Avoid machine washing on standard cycles, as this can cause shrinking or felting. Instead, hand wash in cool water using a gentle wool-specific detergent. Gently squeeze excess water out—do not wring the fabric—and lay the sweater flat on a clean towel to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. This method maintains the integrity of the ribbed trims and the shape of the oversized cut. When storing, fold your sweater rather than hanging it; hanging wool garments for extended periods can cause them to lose their shape due to the weight of the material.
