Troubleshooting
Sweater feels itchy
Alpaca can sometimes feel different from wool. Ensure you are washing it with appropriate detergent and drying it correctly. Wearing a thin base layer underneath can also help if initial wear causes irritation.
Pilling or fuzz balls appearing
Natural fibers like alpaca can sometimes pill. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Proper washing and careful wear can minimize pilling.
Sweater losing shape
Ensure you are following the 'lay flat to dry' instruction and not hanging the sweater. Store by folding rather than hanging to maintain its original shape.
