Troubleshooting
Shedding after initial use.
This is common with acrylic and polyester blends. Gently brush or shake the throw outdoors to remove loose fibers. Subsequent shedding should be minimal.
Loss of shape after washing.
Ensure you are hand washing with cold water and laying flat to dry, reshaping while damp. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying at all costs.
Snags or pulls in the knit.
Carefully try to pull the snagged yarn back through to the reverse side of the fabric using a needle or crochet hook. Avoid cutting the yarn.
Color transfer to other fabrics.
While unlikely with proper care, ensure to wash separately or with like colors in cold water to prevent any potential color bleeding, especially during the first few washes.
