Cashmere sweaters are the ultimate in luxury when it comes to winter wear, but they can be delicate and require special care to keep them looking great for years. Here are some tips on how to properly care for and wash your beloved cashmere sweater.

1. Hand washing is the way to go. Avoid using the washing machine, as the agitation can damage the delicate fibers of cashmere. Instead, fill a sink or basin with water at 30°C and mix in a gentle wool/cashmere detergent. Gently swish the sweater around and let it soak for 20-30 minutes.

2. Rinse the sweater thoroughly with water, then gently squeeze out excess water. Don't twist or wring the sweater, as this can damage the fibers.

3. Lay the sweater flat on a clean towel and reshape it to its original size. Roll up the towel to remove excess water and then lay the sweater flat to dry. Avoid hanging the sweater or placing it in the dryer, as this can cause it to lose its shape.

4. Store your cashmere sweater in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Fold it neatly and place it in a breathable garment bag or drawer.

By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your cashmere sweater stays in great condition for many winters to come. A well-cared-for cashmere sweater is a true investment piece that will never go out of style.
