Caring for your alpaca clothing:
Alpaca, while being a durable wool, it does need some special attention when you wash it. Here are our simple washing and drying steps:
You never want to use hot water for baby alpaca wool, as the fabric will band together. Always use cold water and soak your garment with a mild detergent.
Gently squeeze the item without wringing, which can cause stretching.
Rinse well in cold water and carefully press out the extra water by hand.
Use the towel method to get out the extra moisture; just lay clothing between two dry towels and then roll it up and push down to soak up the water.
Lay flat on a clean towel to dry
And you’re done!
PS: Alpaca has natural anti-bacterial properties and seldom needs to be washed.
Caring for your cotton clothing:
While our cotton line is made to last, hand-crocheted clothing does need to be washed and dried carefully to ensure that it stays in top condition. Here are some simple washing and drying steps:
If you’re washing by hand, simply soak your Miou clothing with a mild detergent in warm water.
For machine washing, set your machine to the “delicate” setting and select the cold water option.
Given the artisanal craftsmanship involved in creating this garment, variations in tension among knitters are anticipated. Consequently, measurements may deviate slightly from the provided chart, yet such discrepancies are not expected to compromise the overall fit.The chart measurement pertains to the product, with the understanding that they have some stretchability.
Absolutely love this dress and I am so excited that there were larger sizes available- I purchased the 9/10 and the fit is generous so it will last extra long for us and the quality is amazing as always! Your knitters are so talented- thank you!
