How to Care for Your Knitwear
By Mara Lindholm · 23 Jul 2026
Wash less than you think. Air a sweater between wears and spot-clean rather than tossing it in the machine.
When it is time, hand-wash cold with a gentle soap, press out the water in a towel, and dry flat. Never hang a wet knit.
Store folded, not hung, and keep cedar nearby. Done right, your favorite sweater outlives the trend that sold it.
