FAQs

Is this cardigan machine washable?

It is recommended to use a delicate wool cycle with cool water and a mild detergent specifically designed for wool.

Does the wool require ironing?

No, one of the primary benefits of this specific knit is its wrinkle resistance, making ironing unnecessary.

How does the sizing run?

This garment features a regular fit, meaning it runs true to size. If you plan to layer thick sweaters underneath, you may consider your standard size.

Can I wear this in light rain?

While wool has natural water-repellent properties, this is not a waterproof garment and should be protected during heavy downpours.

Where should I store it during summer?

Store in a breathable garment bag with cedar blocks or lavender to protect the wool from moths.

Troubleshooting

Pilling on the surface of the wool

Use a fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove surface fuzz, which is a natural characteristic of high-quality wool fibers.

Garment feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a dedicated wool detergent that contains lanolin to help maintain the softness of the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Universal Works wool fleece, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Hand wash in cool water or use a delicate wool cycle in your machine inside a laundry bag.
  2. Drying: Never tumble dry. Lay the garment flat on a clean towel in a shaded area to maintain its shape.
  3. Storage: Fold the cardigan when not in use. Avoid hanging on thin wire hangers for extended periods, as this can stretch the shoulders.
  4. Styling: The regular fit allows for layering; choose your standard size to accommodate a t-shirt or thin sweater underneath.
