Troubleshooting

Blanket feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and consider adding a small amount of fabric softener designed for natural fibers. Line drying can also help maintain softness.

Noticeable shrinkage after washing

Some shrinkage is normal for natural fibers like cotton and bamboo. Ensure you are washing within the recommended temperature limits (40°C) and avoid excessive heat during drying. The blanket is designed to accommodate this slight reduction in size.

Fabric appears to be pilling

Pilling can occur with natural fiber blends. Wash the blanket inside out in a laundry bag to minimize friction. Avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans or towels.
