Knitwear care: keep your jumpers looking new

[PLACEHOLDER — intro: a good jumper should last years; five minutes of care makes the difference.]

Wash less, wash cool

[PLACEHOLDER — hand wash or wool cycle at 30°C, gentle detergent, never wring.]

Dry flat, away from heat

[PLACEHOLDER — reshape while damp, towel roll, radiators are the enemy.]

Pilling is normal

[PLACEHOLDER — fabric comb or de-piller, why it happens with softer yarns.]

Store folded, not hung

[PLACEHOLDER — hangers stretch shoulders; cedar blocks over mothballs.]
