Washing
It is recommended that you clean or wash your cashmere between every three to
five wears. You can clean your cashmere multiple ways. The safest way to clean
your cashmere is to give it to a dry cleaner to ensure that no damage is done.
However, at home cleaning can thoroughly clean your cashmere and still
maintain its quality if the following steps are noted.
It is recommended that you clean your cashmere through a hand-wash
system by following these steps:
- 1. Fill a tub with cold water, and add a mild detergent, such as baby shampoo,
dish soap
- 2. Allow your cashmere to soak in the mild detergent for 10 minutes
- 3. Rinse thoroughly--Note: Be aware not to wring your cashmere to avoid
stretching out the delicate material
- 4. Lay your cashmere on a drying rack. If you do not own a drying rack,
place it between two towels
If you do not have time to hand wash your cashmere, you can use a
washing machine to clean it. All you have to do is place your garment inside a
laundry bag before your put it in the washing machine. This will protect the garment
from experiencing any rough treatment during the cycle. Select the most gentle cycle
on cold water.
