FAQs
What is the best way to clean this cardigan to preserve its quality?
For optimal care, hand wash the cardigan in cold water using a mild detergent, or use a delicate cycle on your washing machine with cold water. Always lay it flat to dry to maintain its shape and protect the shimmer.
Is this cardigan suitable for all seasons?
While it contains wool and alpaca for warmth, its lightweight design makes it suitable for layering in cooler evenings or air-conditioned environments during warmer seasons. However, it's primarily designed as an ideal layering piece for Autumn/Winter.
Can I wear this cardigan to a formal event?
The Shimmer V-Neck Ribbed Cardigan is best suited for smart-casual to semi-dressed occasions due to its subtle shimmer and relaxed V-neck design. For very formal events, you might opt for a more tailored jacket or wrap.
What is the approximate length of the cardigan?
This cardigan features a comfortable hip-length design, measuring approximately 60cm from the shoulder to the hem, making it versatile for pairing with various bottom types.
Will the shimmer shed or fade over time?
The metallised fiber is carefully woven into the fabric for durability. With proper care (gentle washing, avoiding harsh friction), the shimmer should remain vibrant. Minor shedding is normal for new garments with specialty fibers but should diminish.
How should I store the cardigan to prevent stretching?
It is highly recommended to fold the cardigan neatly and store it on a shelf or in a drawer. Hanging knitted garments, especially those with wool or alpaca content, can cause them to stretch and lose their original shape over time.
Troubleshooting
Cardigan appears stretched or has lost its original shape after washing.
This often occurs if the cardigan was hung to dry or washed incorrectly. Always lay the cardigan flat on a clean towel to air dry. Ensure washing is done on a delicate cycle with cold water or by hand.
The shimmer detail seems dull or a thread has snagged.
Handle the cardigan with care, especially around jewelry or rough surfaces, to prevent snagging. For washing, turn the cardigan inside out to protect the metallised fibers. Minor dullness can sometimes be revived with a gentle steam, but avoid direct high heat.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the quality, shape, and shimmer of your cardigan.
- Washing: Hand wash cold or use a delicate cycle with cold water in your washing machine. This protects the delicate fibers and the metallised shimmer.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent specifically formulated for delicate garments or wool.
- Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean, dry towel to air dry. Avoid hanging when wet, as this can cause stretching and distortion of the knit.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting. To protect the shimmer and delicate fibers, iron the cardigan inside out and use a pressing cloth if desired.
- Storage: Fold the cardigan neatly and store it on a shelf or in a drawer. Avoid hanging it on a hanger for extended periods, as this can cause the garment to stretch and lose its shape.
