Sock Care

Having invested in Mohair, Alpaca or Cashmere socks, you’ll want to be sure you get maximum benefit from your purchase. Alpaca and Mohair socks wash beautifully, with little to no shrinkage, but some basic rules are best observed to ensure their long life.

• Hand wash recommended– or if machine-washing (Mohair only) your socks use a wool cycle.
• Cashmere is very delicate please Hand wash only!
• Choose a gentle cycle – it is the agitation that causes damage to the fibres.
• Avoid bleach – it is not necessary and can affect the strength of colours over time.
• Simply lay them out flat to dry
• Pair up – but do not turn inside out and roll together as this stretches the fibres.
• Place flat in a sock drawer ready for their next outing.
