Is it okay to clean cashmere using lukewarm water?
Wash it only in cold water; warm water may distort the fabric’s shape. Cold keeps the fibers safe, so avoid anything heated during washing.
Can you put cashmere in the dryer without damage?
No. Dryer heat can shrink and damage cashmere. Always dry it flat on a towel and keep it away from direct heat sources.
How often should I wash cashmere?
Cashmere doesn’t need frequent washing. Once every few wears is enough unless it gets stained or spills occur.
Does cashmere handle ironing?
Yes, but only with low heat. Always use a pressing cloth so the fabric never touches the iron directly.
What makes my cashmere form little balls (pilling)?
Pilling is normal for natural fibers. Use a cashmere comb to gently remove pills without pulling or stretching the fabric.
How should I store cashmere long-term?
Fold the item and store it in a breathable dust bag. Adding cedar pieces helps keep moths and insects away.
Is it okay to wear cashmere when it’s raining outside?
Light moisture is fine, but avoid getting cashmere fully soaked. If it becomes wet, reshape it gently and air dry it flat.
