Cashmere is a delicate type of wool and dry clean is the most recommended way to clean these gorgeous garments. However, hand washing is still possible as long as you are careful enough. Always wash your cashmere scarf first before wearing 
it for the first time to prevent it from bleeding later on. To hand wash, use cold water. Similar to silk, dissolve baby shampoo or wash in the water. You can then use your hands to rub away on the surface of the cloth. To dry, you can warm the cloth with an iron but it is always safer to place it under a towel first.
How to care for the cashmere scarf:
…doesn’t only concern proper washing procedures. It is also important to know the basics of storing it so it can last for many years. Take note that these get better with age if taken care of properly. They get softer and feel more comfortable on the skin with age. So, before storing your garment, make sure it is completely dry and clean. If you noticed stain, it is best to get rid of it first. Your storage space must be dry also, meaning it doesn’t get damp when the weather changes and it is away from the sunlight. Use an acid free tissue paper to wrap the scarf before storing it in a box made of paper or linen. To keep away the moths, you can use naphthalene balls or any modern products that take care of this concern.
With diligence and common sense, your cashmere scarf…
…can last a long time and may even be one of the best fashion accessories you own.
