Knitwear Fabric Care Guide
Quality knitwear is an investment in craftsmanship and longevity. With considered care, each piece will maintain its shape, softness and refinement for years to come.
100% Merino Wool
Long Sleeve Knit
Naturally breathable and odour-resistant, Merino wool requires less frequent washing than most fabrics. Often, airing the garment is sufficient between wears.
Washing
- Turn the garment inside out
- Use cold water only
- Select a wool or delicate cycle
- Use a mild detergent designed for wool
- Do not use fabric softener
Hand washing in cold water is recommended where possible. Avoid soaking for extended periods.
Drying
- Do not tumble dry
- Gently reshape while damp
- Lay flat on a clean, dry towel
- Keep away from direct heat and sunlight
Never hang wet knitwear, as this may cause stretching and distortion.
Storing
- Fold neatly; do not hang
- Store in a cool, dry place
- Use cedar blocks or appropriate moth protection when required
Proper storage helps maintain structure season after season
70% Cotton / 30% Silk
Short Sleeve Polo & Tee
This refined blend combines cotton’s breathability with silk’s smooth drape. Gentle care preserves both softness and shape.
Washing
- Turn inside out
- Wash on a cold, delicate cycle
- Use a mild detergent
- Wash with similar colours
- Avoid heavy spin settings
Hand washing in cold water is ideal to extend the life of the garment.
Drying
- Do not tumble dry
- Lay flat to dry
- Do not wring or twist
- Dry away from direct sunlight
Silk fibres benefit from minimal agitation and gentle handling.
General Care Recommendations
- Avoid over-washing; knitwear benefits from airing between wears
- Treat stains promptly and gently
- Avoid contact with rough surfaces to minimise pilling
- If pilling occurs, use a knitwear comb or fabric shaver carefully
Should you be unsure, professional dry cleaning is recommended.
