How to care for your cashmere

Today I would like to introduce you to how to care for cashmere.
By taking care of it, you can keep it in good condition and use it for a long time.

Cashmere has a unique luster and its fine, soft fibers make it pleasant to the touch and very comfortable to wear. To maintain this condition for a long time, be sure to brush it and let it rest.

 

First, brushing.

Brushing the dirt off before it settles into the fibers will help prevent dirt from setting in and insects from feeding on it.

In addition, by removing the dust trapped deep within the fibers and straightening the fibers, the original luster of the fabric is brought out. Tangled fibers are also loosened, making pilling less likely to occur.

Next, how to do it.

First, scrape the dust away from the fabric by going against the grain.
When brushing, be careful not to use too much force as it will be difficult to remove the plaque.

Next, brush off the dust in the direction of the fibers.
Brush the surface of the fabric in one direction, lightly wiping it.

Finally, the fabric is straightened along the grain.
Finish by moving the brush in large, relaxed movements in one direction.

The key here is to use a clothes brush made of natural bristles.
Natural bristle brushes have soft bristles, allowing you to brush fabrics without putting any strain on them.

Of all the natural hair brushes, horsehair clothes brushes are the only choice for caring for cashmere.

Horsehair brushes have soft, fine bristles that can quickly remove dirt and are gentle on fabrics with minimal damage.
Perfect for the soft and delicate material of cashmere.

On the other hand, boar bristles are quite hard and cannot reach the depths of delicate skin.
It will be difficult to remove all the dust.
Also, because boar bristles are too stiff, using too much force can damage your clothes.
Make sure to use a horsehair brush.

Another advantage of natural bristle brushes is that they contain oils and moisture, making them less likely to generate static electricity.

Next, give your clothes a rest.

Cashmere is a material that is sensitive to moisture and prone to pilling and deformation, so it is important to let it rest and dry for a few days after wearing.

If you wear cashmere every day, moisture will accumulate due to sweat and body heat, damaging the texture.

To maintain its elegance, wear it for one day and then let it rest for a day or two.

To rest it, dry it flat in the shade and allow it to air out.
If it is difficult to dry flat, you can simply hang it over the back of a chair.

You can also let air pass through to dissipate the smell.

Daily care is important to keep your cashmere clothing in good condition for a long time.
With proper care, cashmere will maintain its softness and luster.

Cashmere is a very delicate material, so even if you are not wearing it, it is recommended that you care for it about once every two weeks.

Be sure to take good care of your cashmere, use it for a long time, and get through the cold winter in style.
