Troubleshooting

Sweater feels itchy

Cotton can sometimes feel rough initially. Washing it according to the care instructions may soften the fibers. If irritation persists, consider wearing a thin base layer underneath.

Sweater losing its shape

Ensure you are laying the sweater flat to dry and avoiding machine dryers. Folding for storage instead of hanging also helps maintain its original form.

Pilling on the fabric

Some pilling can occur with natural fibers like cotton over time. Use a fabric shaver to gently remove any small pills that appear.

Color fading after washing

Always wash with like colors in cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach. Ensure the garment is dried away from direct sunlight.
