Troubleshooting
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding high heat in the dryer. Lay flat to dry if possible. Future washes should follow these guidelines strictly.
Stretching or loss of shape
Avoid wringing the garment. Lay flat to dry instead of hanging, especially when wet, to prevent the weight of the water from causing stretching. Ensure proper storage by folding rather than hanging.
Pilling of cotton fabric
Gentle washing and drying cycles can help minimize pilling. Use a fabric shaver for any minor pilling that occurs.
Embroidery fraying
Wash inside out and avoid abrasive contact with the embroidered area. If fraying occurs, consider a very small trim with sharp scissors, but avoid if possible.
