Firstly, consider airing the garment instead of washing it. If washing is necessary, follow these guidelines:
- Hand wash at 30ºC separately using wool detergent without enzymes or optical brighteners.
- Do not let the garment soak. Gently move it back and forth without rubbing or squeezing.
- Rinse until the water is clear, keeping the temperature consistent.
- Lightly spin the garment at around 800rpm using a program that doesn't add water at the start, or press out excess water with a dry towel without twisting or rolling it.
- To dry, shape the garment and lay it flat on a warm bathroom floor or a drying rack in a well-ventilated room. Avoid hanging or direct sunlight.
- Do not tumble dry.
Note: If the garment is made with a combination of yarns, follow the washing instructions for the most delicate yarn used.

Yarn Story
Baby Alpaca
Baby alpaca wool is a premium natural fiber sourced from the soft, first shearing of young alpacas. Renowned for its incredible softness, warmth, and lightweight feel, baby alpaca wool is considered one of the most luxurious and gentle fibers available. It’s softer than regular alpaca wool and often compared to cashmere for its silky texture.
Merino
Merino yarns are prized for their versatility, often used in knitting and weaving to create high-quality clothing, accessories, and activewear. The yarns are also durable and resist pilling, ensuring long-lasting, comfortable garments. Merino’s ability to absorb dyes well results in rich, vibrant colors, making it a top choice for both practical and luxurious textile projects.
