Materials & Care
100% soft, high-quality wool sustainably raised from sheep in Southern Peru. To care for your knitwear, we recommend hand washing or using a cold, gentle machine cycle with a wool-approved detergent. Avoid unnecessary washing to help preserve the fibres and extend the life of the garment. After washing, gently remove excess water by rolling in a towel and dry flat on a rack away from direct heat.
