Hand Washing Your Cashmere Garments
Hand washing your cashmere garments is an essential practice to refresh and condition the delicate fibers. While
many people avoid frequent washing and instead opt for spot cleaning to prolong the life of their items, this method
works best for garments in regular use. However, before storing your cashmere for an extended period, a thorough
cleanse is highly recommended.
Why Hand Washing Matters
Cashmere is a luxury fiber, and improper cleaning can compromise its softness and structure. Hand washing gently
restores the fibers, keeping your garments soft, supple, and long-lasting. Unlike spot cleaning, which only addresses
surface dirt, hand washing ensures that the entire garment is refreshed.
Hand Washing Guidelines
We strongly recommend washing cashmere by hand. Even using the hand-wash setting on a washing machine can increase
the risk of stretching or damaging the fibers. Instead, carefully fill a basin with lukewarm water and use a mild
detergent specifically designed for wool or cashmere. Gently submerge the garment, swish lightly, and avoid wringing
or twisting.
After washing, rinse thoroughly and press out excess water by rolling the garment in a clean towel. Lay it flat to
dry, reshaping it to maintain its original form. By taking these steps, you preserve the softness, shape, and luxury
quality of your cashmere.
Maintain the Beauty of Handmade Cashmere
Caring for your cashmere thoughtfully ensures that each piece continues to reflect the quality and craftsmanship of
handmade Himalayan fibers. Hand washing is a small but impactful step in maintaining the longevity of your cherished
garments.
