Caring for Your Recycled Cashmere Beanie

Quick Answer

Hand wash your MiiR Recycled Cashmere Beanie in cold water with a gentle wool detergent, lay flat to dry, and store folded to maintain its shape and softness.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I wash my beanie?

Wash your beanie only when it's visibly dirty or after several wears. Cashmere naturally resists odors, so spot-cleaning between washes is often enough.

Can I machine wash my recycled cashmere beanie?

It's not recommended. Machine washing can cause pilling and stretching. Hand washing in cold water with a mild wool detergent is safer and preserves the fabric's softness. If you must use a machine, place the beanie in a mesh laundry bag and use the delicate cycle with cold water.

How do I dry my beanie without shrinking it?

Never wring or twist the beanie. Gently press out excess water with a towel, then reshape it and lay it flat on a dry towel away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not hang or use a dryer. Drying flat prevents stretching and maintains the beanie's original shape.

How should I store my beanie between wears?

Fold the beanie loosely and store it in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging, which can stretch the knit. Keep it away from moths by storing with cedar blocks or lavender sachets.

What should I do if my beanie pills?

Use a fabric shaver or a cashmere comb to gently remove pills. Test on a small area first to avoid damaging the knit. Regular care reduces pilling over time.
