Even the most expensive and high-quality items can be easily ruined if you make mistakes while washing.

Still, knitted items require special care.

It is better to wash them by hand, otherwise there is a risk that the fibers will stretch. Regular powder is not suitable. For delicate fabrics, you can use baby powder or grated laundry soap.

You can use washing gel to keep your clothes soft and remove dirt or excess odors.

The water should not be hot. It is recommended to wash such clothes at 30 degrees.

After the main procedure, you should rinse the sweaters thoroughly to remove all traces of detergent.

When rinsing, you can add a spoonful of table vinegar to the water to preserve the color and prevent the threads from stretching.

Knitted clothes should not be twisted or dried vertically after washing. It is necessary to lay the sweater on a towel to remove excess moisture, and then spread a dry towel on the dryer, and put the knitted item on top.
