Aftercare

To ensure your hand-crocheted pieces remain in excellent condition for longer, please follow these care instructions:

Detergent: Use a mild detergent specifically designed for delicate items.

Water Temperature: Wash your piece in cold water to prevent shrinkage or damage to the fibers.

Washing Method: Hand-wash gently, avoiding harsh agitation or scrubbing to maintain shape and integrity.

Drying: Air-dry your piece. Avoid using a machine dryer, as it may cause shrinkage or deformation.

Step-by-step cleaning process:

1. Thoroughly wet your hand-crocheted piece. Do not wring or scrub it.

2. Drain the detergent water and refill the basin with fresh cold water to rinse.

3. Repeat rinsing until the water runs clear and free of suds.

4. Gently squeeze out excess water over the basin without twisting or wringing.

5. Roll the piece in a towel, pressing firmly (but not wringing) to absorb remaining moisture.

6. Lay flat to dry, away from direct sunlight.

7. Avoid hanging the piece, as this may stretch it out of shape.

By following these care instructions, you’ll keep your hand-crocheted pieces looking their best for years to come.
