~

-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
CROCHET
Tip: Open-work knits can catch on jewelry or clasps in the wash - a mesh laundry bag adds extra protection.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
FLEECE
Wash with like fabrics - fleece can attract lint from towels and other high-shed items.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
GAUZE
Good to know: Gauze's open weave is lightweight and breezy but can snag easily. A mesh wash bag helps keep it looking its best over time.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
HEAVY KNIT
These include twill knits and velours, and fall into our standard/easy care category. You love them, and they will love you back.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
JACQUARD
The woven pattern is set during production and holds up well to a standard cold cycle.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent

KNIT
Our everyday-basics family - jerseys, ribs, and thermals all follow the general rule.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None

LINEN
Our recommendation: Hang-drying linen keeps its natural texture and softens the wrinkles you'd otherwise need to iron out.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low, or hang to dry
MESH
Most of the time it stands on its own, but sometimes used as trim or paneling - follow the care of the primary fabric it's paired with if in doubt.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
POPLIN
Color tip: Less washing saves color - spot-clean between wears when you can, and wash a full load rather than a single piece.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
SATIN
Usually mixed with our other fabrics, but plays nice with them in the wash, and keeps its sheen through a standard gentle cold cycle.
-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low
SWEATER KNIT
Why it's different: Tumble drying can pull sweater knits out of shape. Laying flat keeps the fit true.

-
BEST CARE:

-
BEST CARE:
- WASH: Cold, mild detergent
- BLEACH: None
- DRY: Low or hang dry
WOVEN
These are the fabrics we use that don't fall into any of the above categories, but still fall into that easy to care for bucket. (They include: voile, crepe, and more...)

Why Your Sweaters Lose Their Shape
The Secret: Tumble drying a sweater knit in the dryer is the quickest way to ruin its fit! Laying sweater knits flat to dry preserves the elasticity and keeps the fit true every time.
Corduroy Has a "Pile" to Protect
Pro Tip: Corduroy’s distinct ribbed texture (the pile) can easily attract lint and wear down in the wash. Washing your corduroy pieces inside out keeps the fabric smooth, lint-free, and looking fresh.
Linen Gets Soft on the Line
Wrinkle Hack: You don't always need an iron for linen! Hang-drying linen preserves its natural, relaxed texture and naturally softens up the stubborn wrinkles.
Fleece is a "Lint Magnet"
Washing Rule: Fleece attracts floating lint like crazy—especially from towels or high-shed garments. Always wash fleece with like fabrics to keep it clean and pill-free.
