Tips on making your cashmere last for seasons to come:
-Avoid rubbing = less pilling. This mean watching out for seat belts, purse straps, and jewelry
-Be careful with fragrance. Fragrance can damage the delicate fibers so make sure your lotion, deodorant, and perfume sprayed areas are dry before putting your garment on
-Store in a plastic bag(away from light and damp areas)- The fibers need to breath
-Wash properly- Hand wash in room temperature water with a gentle soap, soak for 5 minutes then rise. Lay flat to dry. You can also dry clean the sweaters.
