The cashmere care guide

Despite its reputation, cashmere doesn't need constant professional cleaning — but it does need gentleness. Hand-wash in cool water with a specialist wool wash, supporting the garment's weight, and never wring. For structured or embellished pieces, or anything you'd hate to risk, bring it to us.

Dry flat on a towel, reshaped by hand, away from direct heat. Never hang wet knitwear — it will grow. Store folded, clean, and ideally with cedar; moths prefer cashmere above almost everything else in your wardrobe.

Pilling is normal — it's the short fibres working loose — and a cashmere comb removes it safely. Small holes caught early are very repairable: our invisible mending rebuilds the knit rather than patching over it, which is exactly the kind of quiet work we love.
