Castore - XL - Black

Cashmere is made from the fine, soft undercoat of cashmere goats. It is significantly softer, lighter, and warmer than traditional sheep's wool, offering a more luxurious feel.

Cashmere does not need frequent washing. Airing it out after each wear is often sufficient. Wash only when necessary, typically after several wears or if visibly soiled, to preserve the fibers.

While cashmere is breathable, it is primarily designed for warmth. It may be too warm for hot weather but can be suitable for air-conditioned environments.

A crew neck is a round neckline that fits closely around the base of the neck without a collar. It is a classic and versatile style.

It is strongly recommended to hand wash cashmere garments. While some machines have a delicate wool cycle, hand washing is the safest method to prevent stretching or damage.

Fold the sweater neatly and store it in a breathable garment bag or a drawer in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic bags which can trap moisture. Consider using moth repellents like cedar.

With consistent, proper care, a high-quality cashmere sweater can last for many years, often becoming softer and more comfortable with age.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent specifically for cashmere/wool. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue. A very small amount of fabric conditioner designed for wool can sometimes help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Gently use a cashmere comb or a fabric shaver to remove pills. Avoid excessive friction or rubbing against rough surfaces.

Reshape the garment while damp after washing and lay it flat to dry. For minor stretching, re-wetting and reshaping may help. Avoid hanging.

Ensure the garment is completely dry before storing. Air out the garment in a well-ventilated area. If the odor persists, hand wash again following care instructions.
