Tip: If you’re between sizes, choose the larger size for a more relaxed fit.
We choose fabrics for comfort and durability. Please always follow the care label inside your garment. As a general rule: wash knitwear and wool gently at 86 °F (30 °C) or by hand, lay flat to dry, and avoid the tumble dryer. Store knits folded rather than hung so they keep their shape.
