Drycleaning is the best way to deal with stains on your cashmere and isrecommended if the cashmere is woven, like a pashmina or has details includingleather buttons. Loose knit designs are safer dry cleaned as hand-washing candisturb the knit pattern.

Storingyour cashmere is very important as moths are much less attracted to cleangarments. Therefore, it is advised to only ever store clean garments in abreathable zip-up plastic bag. If a breathable zip-up bag is not available acedar wood ball is a good, modern and natural alternative as not only do theyhave a pleasant fragrance, they are effective at preventing moths, mustinessand mildew. However, N.Peal recommend replacing them every 6 to 12 months.

Onsome occasions the friction of wear causes tiny balls of fluff to form on newcashmere garments. Regular washing helps prevent pilling on quality cashmeregarments.
