Care Plus
At Cashmere Knot, we want your Pure Cashmere scarves and Pashmina stoles and shawls to remain as timeless, soft, and luxurious as the day they were created. These delicate natural fibers deserve careful attention, and with the right care, they can last for many years, continuing to provide warmth, elegance, and comfort. Whether you wear them daily or for special occasions in Ireland or the UK, proper handling, storage, and cleaning will help preserve their lightweight feel, natural softness, and exquisite craftsmanship. By following a few simple steps, you can ensure that your Cashmere Knot pieces remain a cherished part of your wardrobe for years to come, keeping the artistry and heritage of these luxurious fibers alive with every wear.
When wearing your Cashmere Knot stoles, scarves, or shawls, always handle them gently. Cashmere and Pashmina are finely woven natural fibers, so they should be draped naturally and never stretched, pulled, or twisted. Take care to avoid sharp jewelry, zippers, or rough fabrics that might cause snags or pulls in the delicate material. Giving your scarf or stole time to rest between wears allows the fibers to breathe, recover, and maintain their original softness and shape. With mindful handling, your Cashmere Knot pieces will retain their luxurious feel and lightweight elegance for years, whether worn casually or for special occasions in Ireland or the UK.
For cleaning your Cashmere Knot stoles, scarves, and shawls, dry cleaning is always the preferred method, as it preserves the softness, richness, and natural beauty of the fibers. Always select a professional dry cleaner experienced with luxury wool and delicate fabrics to ensure the highest quality care. If dry cleaning is not available, hand washing can be a careful alternative. Use cold water and a gentle detergent formulated for wool, or a mild baby shampoo. Gently swish the fabric without rubbing, twisting, or wringing, and rinse thoroughly with cold water. To remove excess water, lay the stole or scarf between clean towels and press lightly; never wring the fabric. Following these steps will help maintain the softness, color, and lightweight elegance of your Cashmere Knot pieces for years to come.
Drying your Cashmere Knot stoles, scarves, and shawls is best done by laying them flat on a clean towel, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Hanging or using a tumble dryer can distort the delicate fibers, so always allow your pieces to air-dry naturally. When it comes to storage, keep your Cashmere or Pashmina in a breathable cotton or muslin bag in a cool, dry environment. Avoid storing in plastic, as the fabric needs proper air circulation to maintain its softness and lightweight feel. For added protection against moths and insects, use natural repellents such as cedar or lavender. By following these care practices, your Cashmere Knot pieces will retain their luxurious texture, shape, and elegance for years of effortless style.
Over time, your Cashmere Knot stoles, scarves, and shawls may develop light pilling, which is a natural characteristic of fine fibers. These small pills can be gently removed using a soft fabric comb, helping to maintain a smooth and refined appearance. To freshen up your pieces, use a handheld steamer or a cool iron, placing a cloth between the iron and the fabric to protect the delicate fibers. When traveling, always fold your stole or scarf carefully and store it in a protective pouch or bag to preserve its lightweight elegance, prevent snags, and keep it looking luxurious. With attentive care, your Cashmere Knot pieces will continue to offer warmth, softness, and timeless style wherever you go.
By following these care guidelines, your Cashmere Knot stoles, scarves, and shawls crafted from Pure Cashmere and Pashmina will retain their softness, elegance, and luxurious feel for years to come. Each piece will remain a timeless part of your wardrobe, continuing to offer warmth, comfort, and effortless style, reflecting the craftsmanship and heritage behind every Cashmere Knot creation.
