Care Instructions

Crochet shawls are true handmade works of art, and as such, they deserve special care to stay impeccable over time. With a few small gestures and a bit of attention, it's possible to preserve these unique pieces as truly timeless treasures in your wardrobe.

With this in mind, we've gathered some simple yet effective tips to help maintain the beauty of the crochet, as well as honor all the handwork present in every stitch.

Proper Storage

Avoid hanging the shawls, as crochet tends to stretch out of shape over time. It's best to store them folded, in a cool, dry place.
For extra protection, use fabric bags or pillowcases, avoiding contact with dust and friction with other items.

Gentle Washing

Always hand wash and follow these steps:

• Fill a basin with cold water and add a small amount of wool detergent. Submerge the shawl and let it soak for 10 to 15 minutes.

• Gently move it with your hands to help remove dirt — never rub!

• Rinse the piece in clean water until all the soap is removed. Repeat the process if necessary, always using cold water.

Natural Drying

• Carefully remove excess water — never wring the piece! Instead, roll it in a clean towel, pressing to absorb the moisture.

• Lay it on a dry towel on a flat surface to help it keep its original shape, preferably outdoors but away from direct sunlight.

• Adjust the shape with your hands if needed, to make sure it dries in the correct position.

Mindful Use

Avoid contact with rough surfaces or objects that could snag the threads, such as brooches, necklaces, and rings. These details can compromise the beauty and durability of the crochet..

Temporary Storage

When you need to transport or temporarily store the shawl, opt for small cotton bags inside your suitcase or bag, protecting it from possible damage.
