CF7A1674 1Today I want to give you some advice, which you will surely know, but it is always good to refresh your memory, on how to wash cashmere.

Sweaters, cardigans, dresses, but also scarves, gloves, hats, in short, all cashmere garments.

Cashmere should be washed in cold water (never in the washing machine), without detergent, but with soap for delicate clothing, a little soap, very little.

It is soaked in a basin for two or three hours with a little soap.

Then it is removed from the basin, the excess water is left to flow off on its own, without wringing, and it is placed flat on a blanket or towel to let it dry.

Never hang it!!! Cashmere is such a delicate fiber that by hanging an item of clothing to dry, there is a strong possibility that the weight of the water will cause your garment to deform, making it misshapen, long and narrow, without the possibility of letting it regain its shape. original shape.

Finally ironing. Generally, cashmere items do not need to be ironed, but if you really want to iron it, do not place the iron on the fibre, just pass the steam through it.
The steam alone is enough to remove any creases that remain without damaging the fiber itself.

A hot or, worse, too hot iron placed on a cashmere garment can damage the fibre, which is already very delicate.

Follow these little tips and your cashmere garment will last forever while always looking brand new.
