Lightweight to wear. Easy to maintain.

TAKE CARE OF YOUR KNITWEAR

MOHAIR & CASHMERE, OUR GOLDEN RULES.

Fullness, shape, feel: your knitwear has everything it needs to last. A few simple steps are all it takes to keep it looking as beautiful as the first day, season after season.

WASHING

WASH IT LESS.
WEAR IT MORE.

Not after every wear. One night aired out is enough to refresh it.

Mohair should never be machine-washed. Even on a wool cycle, even on delicate : it could shrink or felt.

The cashmere blend can be machine-washed, on a cold delicate cycle, placed in a mesh laundry bag.

HAND WASH

THE 6-STEP RITUAL.

  1. Cold water, always. 30 °C maximum.
  2. Inside out. Turn your garment inside out before immersing it in water.
  3. A special wool detergent. Use a small amount. And never use fabric softener.
  4. Press, don't rub. Press the knit between your hands, without ever rubbing it.
  5. 10 minutes, no longer. Never leave it soaking for longer.
  6. Same water, same temperature. Rinse at the washing temperature. A thermal shock is enough to shrink the knit.


Does your garment have lace ?
Wash it separately to prevent it from snagging.

SHEDDING

PROTECT YOUR ASSETS.

During the first few wears, mohair may shed a few fibers. This is normal and will soon subside.

A pill under the arms or at the cuffs ? Remove it by hand. For mohair, a special mohair brush also works, always brushing in the direction of the fibers.

Forget about using a fabric shaver. It cuts the fibers that give your knitwear its volume and softness.

Note : bag handles and hook-and-loop straps are not its best friends.

STORAGE

CLOSED. NEVER SUSPENDED.

On a hanger, the knit fabric will stretch under its own weight. Store it folded on a shelf or in a drawer, with the sleeves folded inward.

Always keep it clean. Out of season, place it in a cotton garment bag with a cedar block or lavender sachet to keep moths away.
