FAQs

Is the wool itchy?

The sweater is made from high-quality fibers selected for softness, though if your infant has extremely sensitive skin, consider layering it over a soft cotton undershirt.

Can I put this in the washing machine?

It is strongly recommended to hand wash only, unless your machine has a dedicated, validated 'hand-wash' or 'wool' cycle with low spin.

What does the 12-18 size signify?

This size is designed to fit infants comfortably between the ages of 12 and 18 months.

Is the car motif printed?

No, the car motif is created using the 'intarsia' knitting technique, meaning the design is woven directly into the sweater fabric.

How do I store the sweater during summer?

Clean the sweater thoroughly, ensure it is completely dry, and store it in a breathable garment bag with a lavender sachet to keep it fresh and protected from moths.

Troubleshooting

Small pills or fuzz forming on the surface

Gently use a sweater comb or fabric shaver designed for delicate wool to remove pilling.

Accidental shrinking during washing

Soak in lukewarm water with a small amount of fabric conditioner for 15 minutes, then gently stretch the garment back to its original dimensions while damp.

Pros and Cons

  • High-end craftsmanship with unique hand-embroidered detailing

Cons

  • Higher maintenance compared to cotton or synthetic alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep the garment in excellent condition, follow these care instructions carefully. Always hand wash in cool water using a detergent specifically formulated for wool or delicate fibers. Avoid wringing or twisting the sweater; instead, gently press out excess water using a clean towel. Lay the garment flat to dry in a shaded area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as these can cause the wool to lose its softness or change shape. Store the sweater folded rather than hanging it, as hanging can cause the shoulders to stretch out over time.
