FAQs
What does 'intarsia knitted' mean?
Intarsia is a knitting technique used to create patterns by knitting with multiple colors in a single row. Each color block is worked into the pattern independently, resulting in a clean design on both the front and back of the fabric, with no yarn floats on the reverse.
Is this cardigan truly unisex?
Yes, the cardigan is designed with a relaxed fit and dropped shoulders, intended to be flattering and comfortable for both men and women. However, individuals may prefer to check the specific garment measurements to ensure their desired fit.
What is 'responsible wool'?
Responsible wool signifies that the wool used in the product adheres to certain ethical and environmental standards, often related to animal welfare and land management practices in its sourcing. Refer to AMI Paris's official sustainability guidelines for specific details.
Can I machine wash this cardigan?
No, machine washing is not recommended for this cardigan. It requires careful hand washing in cool water to preserve the integrity of the wool and cotton fibers and to prevent shrinkage or damage.
How should I store the cardigan to maintain its shape?
It is best to store the cardigan folded flat in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging it for extended periods, as the weight of the knit can cause the shoulders and hem to stretch and lose their original shape.
What is the difference between this cardigan and a sweater?
A cardigan typically features an open front, often with buttons or a zipper, designed for layering. A sweater usually has a closed front and is pulled on over the head. This AMI Paris garment is specifically a button-front cardigan.
Troubleshooting
Cardigan feels itchy
Due to the wool content, some individuals may experience mild itchiness. Wearing a thin base layer like a t-shirt or long-sleeved top underneath can mitigate this. Ensure the garment is properly cared for according to instructions, as improper washing can affect wool fibers.
Pilling on the wool surface
Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool and cotton knits. You can gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or by carefully picking them off. To minimize pilling, follow the recommended hand-wash and flat-dry care instructions strictly.
Cardigan loses its shape after washing
Ensure you are hand-washing in cool water and laying the garment flat to dry, reshaping it while damp. Avoid wringing or stretching the fabric. If the shape has already been compromised, try gently steaming it and reshaping it while slightly damp.
