FAQs
Is this cardigan machine washable?
It is not recommended. Due to the delicate nature of merino wool and mohair, hand washing is the safest way to maintain the texture and quality.
What does a regular fit mean?
The regular fit indicates a standard cut that provides comfortable room through the body and arms without being oversized or restrictive.
Will the wool itch against bare skin?
Merino wool is generally much finer and softer than traditional wool, though individual sensitivity can vary. Most users find it comfortable to wear over a thin base layer.
Can I tumble dry this item?
No. Tumble drying will likely cause the wool to shrink and damage the fibers. Always lay the item flat to air dry.
Is the cardigan suitable for all seasons?
It is best suited for autumn, winter, and early spring when extra warmth is needed.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on the surface of the wool
Gently use a fabric shaver or a dedicated wool comb to remove pills, taking care not to pull the fibers.
Garment feels stretched after hanging
Always fold knitwear and store flat in a drawer to maintain the original shape and prevent stress on the shoulder seams.
Caught threads or snags
Do not cut the thread. Use a needle to gently pull the snag through to the inside of the garment and secure it lightly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Since this is an apparel item, there is no technical setup required. The cardigan fits true to size for a regular silhouette. To ensure longevity, always follow the care label instructions. Given the merino wool and mohair blend, it is highly recommended to hand wash in cold water using a mild wool-safe detergent or choose professional dry cleaning. Never wring or twist the fabric; instead, lay the cardigan flat on a clean towel to dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation and color fading. Store it folded rather than on a hanger to prevent the shoulder areas from stretching.
