FAQs

What is the primary material of this cardigan?

The cardigan is made from a blend of 34% wool, 34% alpaca, 29% polyamide, and 3% elastane.

How should I wash this cardigan?

Please refer to the care instructions on the product label. Typically, wool and alpaca blends require gentle hand washing in cold water with a mild detergent and should be laid flat to dry.

Is this cardigan suitable for very cold weather?

While it offers warmth due to its wool and alpaca content, its light and airy construction makes it more suitable for transitional weather or as a layering piece rather than for extreme cold.

Where is this cardigan made?

This cardigan is made in Europe.

What does the ribbed edging signify?

The ribbed edging at the cuffs and hem provides a classic finish, adds subtle texture, and helps maintain the garment's shape.

Can I machine wash this cardigan?

Machine washing is generally not recommended for delicate wool and alpaca blends. Hand washing according to the care label is the safest method to preserve the fabric's integrity.

Troubleshooting

Pilling on the fabric

Pilling can occur naturally with wool and alpaca blends. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or comb designed for knitwear. Avoid excessive friction during wear and washing.

Cardigan losing shape

Ensure the cardigan is dried flat and reshaped while damp. Avoid hanging the garment when wet. Store by folding rather than hanging to prevent stretching.

Color fading

Wash inside out in cold water and use a detergent suitable for colors. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.

  • Always refer to the specific care instructions on the product label.
