FAQs

What material is the sweater made of?

The sweater is made from a blend of wool and silk.

How do I tie the front of the sweater?

The tie-front can be styled in various ways, from a loose knot to a more structured bow. It is designed to cinch the waist or create a draped effect.

Is this sweater suitable for dry cleaning?

While hand washing is recommended, some users may opt for professional dry cleaning using a reputable service experienced with wool and silk blends. Always check the care label.

What makes the double-sleeve construction unique?

The double-sleeve detail is an innovative design feature at the waist that creates an interesting layered look and allows for adjustable silhouette definition through the tie-front and belt.

Can I wear this in warmer weather?

Due to its wool and silk composition, it is best suited for transitional weather or cooler climates. It can be layered in warmer months, but may be too warm on its own.

What is the best way to store this sweater?

It should be stored folded in a drawer or on a shelf to maintain its shape. Avoid hanging it, especially for extended periods, to prevent stretching.

Troubleshooting

Pilling on the fabric

Pilling is natural with wool and silk blends. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Avoid excessive friction.

Stretching or misshaping

Ensure the garment is laid flat to dry and not hung when wet. Store folded rather than hung.

Color fading

Wash in cold water with a mild detergent and avoid direct sunlight during drying.

Tie-front is difficult to secure neatly

Experiment with different tying techniques. Ensure the fabric is not twisted. Try tying it loosely first and then adjusting the tightness.
