What's the best way to take care of a cashmere sweater???

Question

Basically after wearing...its made out a very superior Italian yarns in a fine jersey stitch...just wanna protect my invest for lots of wear in the future like with all my clothes.

Answer 1

Hand wash it, and whatever you do, do not dry it in the dryer. It will shrink big time.  Also it doesn't necessarily have to be washed everytime you wear it, be the judge of that, but it will help it last longer if you dont over-wash it.

Answer 2

i just use mine for light wear (golfing) after wearing i have a bar by my washer so i hang my dirty clothes up there as for washing wash it on a low setting and in cold water for drying just lay the washed sweater down on a towel it usually takes 1 day to dry, i had a lacoste cashmere sweater ruined at the dry cleaners so i dont recommend doing that.

i presume the sweater is Ralph Lauren, they have amazing cashmere id pick that over pima any day
