Care Instructions for Crochet Infinity Scarf

To ensure your crochet infinity scarf stays soft, cozy, and beautiful for years to come, please follow the care instructions below:
Washing:
  • Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash the scarf in cold water (below 30°C / 85°F) to preserve its shape and softness.
  • Machine Wash (Optional): If you prefer machine washing, place the scarf in a mesh laundry bag to protect it. Use a gentle, cold-water cycle (below 30°C / 85°F) with a mild detergent.
Drying:
  • Do Not Wring or Twist: After washing, gently press out excess water with your hands, but avoid wringing or twisting the scarf, as this can cause stretching or distortion.
  • Lay Flat to Dry: Lay the scarf flat on a clean towel to dry. Reshape it gently to maintain its original size and shape.
  • Avoid Direct Heat: Do not place the scarf in a tumble dryer, and avoid drying it in direct sunlight or near a heat source, as excessive heat may damage the wool and acrylic fibers.
Storing:
  • Store in a Cool, Dry Place: When not in use, store the scarf in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and maintain its soft texture.
  • Avoid Hanging: Avoid hanging the scarf as this can cause stretching. Instead, fold it neatly or lay it flat in a drawer or on a shelf.
Pilling:
  • Wool Blend Care: Since this scarf contains wool, some natural pilling may occur over time. If you notice pills, gently remove them with a fabric shaver or by hand using a pair of scissors.
  • Preventative Care: To reduce pilling, avoid friction with rough surfaces and take care when wearing the scarf with outerwear that might cause rubbing.
Additional Tips:
  • Mild Detergent: Use a mild detergent designed for wool or delicate fabrics to help preserve the fibers.
  • Avoid Fabric Softener: Fabric softener may damage the fibers, especially wool, so it's best to avoid using it.
By following these simple care instructions, your crochet infinity scarf will remain a warm, stylish accessory for many seasons to come!
