Caring for your handmade pieces

Each handmade piece is crafted from natural fibers and designed to last, but proper care is essential to maintain its beauty and softness over time. The best way to clean your knitwear is by gentle handwashing in lukewarm water with a mild, eco-friendly wool wash or baby shampoo. Avoid harsh detergents, as they can weaken the fibers. When washing, never wring or twist the fabric—gently squeeze out excess water instead.

After washing, reshape the item while damp and lay it flat on a clean towel to dry. Keeping knitwear away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or strong sunlight, helps prevent shrinking or damage. To store your piece, fold it rather than hanging to maintain its shape, and place it in a breathable bag or drawer. Adding natural moth repellents, such as lavender sachets or cedarwood, will help protect the fibers.

By caring for your handmade piece with these simple practices, you’ll ensure it remains a cherished part of your wardrobe for years to come.
