<p>As our shawls are entirely hand-woven, there might be occurrences of loose threads and irregular patterns. Vigilance is recommended, particularly around sharp edges or jewelry that may potentially damage the shawl.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">MACHINE WASHING</span><br />If you choose to machine wash your Cashmere shawl, it is imperative to adhere to a maximum temperature of 20°C or lower, which is essential for maintaining its shape and preventing shrinkage. Employ a wool-specific washing program in your washing machine. For cleansing, we advise the use of baby shampoo or a specialized wool detergent that rinses thoroughly and is devoid of dyes. To hand wash, opt for cold water. You may introduce a modest amount of mild detergent, such as baby shampoo or Woolite, ensuring complete dissolution of the detergent beforehand. Allow the item to soak for approximately five minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Subsequently, undertake a gentle hand washing process, exercising utmost care when dealing with the hand-tied tassels in the case of a Cashmere accessory.<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">DRYING</span><br />When drying the wet Cashmere Shawl, place it on a towel atop a flat surface; avoid wringing it out, as this can lead to fiber stretching and compromise the shawl’s form. Instead, gently roll the towel and shawl together, beginning from the end closest to you, to extract excess water. Subsequently, unroll the towel and lift the shawl off, carefully restoring it to its original shape. Lay it flat on another dry towel for complete air drying. It is crucial to remember that direct sunlight or a dryer should be avoided, as these can bring about irreversible changes in the fiber, resulting in shrinkage and loss of softness. <br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">IRONING</span><br />Cashmere clothing seldom requires ironing. If wrinkles are a concern, you may use a soft cotton cloth on top of the shawl and iron it gently. Direct heat can damage Cashmere fibers; therefore, extended ironing should be avoided for prolonged product life.<br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">SEASONAL STORAGE</span><br />When storing your Cashmere shawl for the summer season, place it in an airtight container alongside cedar wood chips as it serves to deter moths and prevent mustiness from setting in. </p>,color=Black
