Sweater Care

11/19/2012

As the cold weather is upon us, it is time to pull out our favorite sweaters. There are some basic care tips that will help keep that favorite sweater around for a long time.
  • Fold your sweaters. Never hang your sweaters. This will cause them to be misshapen.
  • Repair the sweater quickly. If you find a hole, repair it immediately to prevent the hole from getting larger.
  • Wash most sweaters by hand. (Unless the instructions tell you to machine wash it, don't!)  Use a gentle soap solution to wash woolen sweaters. When washing a sweater, turn it inside out. Don't wring it out; this can cause it to lose its shape. Roll it in a towel or let it drip dry.
  • Remove pills from your sweaters. Purchase a hand-held depiller or a small electric shaver.
  • Wash any sweater you put away for storage. This will help prevent moth holes.
Enjoy these cooler days in your favorite sweater!
