In the cold season you can't do without such a thing.

But in order for the sweater to look good for as long as possible and not lose its shape, it is important to follow certain washing rules.

First of all, it should be emphasized that clothes made of wool, cotton or cashmere require special care. And they should not be washed too often.

Besides, this task cannot be called simple. It is best to choose hand washing. The water should not be too hot.

The optimum temperature is 30 degrees. The temperature of the water for rinsing should not differ.

If machine washing is selected, the mode should be gentle. Spinning should be turned off.

As for detergents, cleaning gels are excellent and can be used as a substitute for hair shampoos.

Do not squeeze or wring the item, otherwise the texture of the fibers may be damaged.

It is advisable to dry the product on a thick towel in a horizontal position.

Do not leave clothing on heating devices or in direct sunlight.
