Cashmere fiber is much finer than wool.
And its outer scale is also more delicate and smoother
than that of wool. It has the characteristics such as
lightness, softness and good toughness and thus is very
suitable for the making of lingerie. People will feel
very light, soft, smooth and comfortable when wearing
it next to skin. It is better than any other fiber in
this respect. Cashmere is composed with fine and curly
fiber, which contains plenty of air that then form an
air layer. This layer can prevent the outer cold air
and keep our body warm. The arrangement of cashmere
is very compact in the spinning process since cashmere
is very fine. Even in a world of ice and snow, you will
still feel warm when wearing cashmere..
The wearing and maintaining method of pure cashmere
dress:
Cashmere lingerie can’t be wore together with rough
or hard coat, such as jeans wear, flax/wool blended
fabric and chemical fiber fabric. The articles like
pen should not be laid in the inner pocket of the coat
for fear that the right part of our body will increase
the friction to cashmere and thus causes raising and
pilling. So we’d better choose the coat with smooth
lining to match the wearing of cashmere.
When we wear cashmere outside, we should try to avoid
the friction between the cashmere and the rough or hard
things (such as the long-time friction of the sleeves
with table) and avoid forceful drawing or dragging to
the cashmere dress.
Remove the dust regularly. Use soft brush or dust catcher
to remove the dust thoroughly.
Air-dry it weekly. Air-dry it for an hour in the sunny
noontime every week.
Storing method:
We should pay much attention to the storage of cashmere
for that it is a kind of egg albumin fiber which becomes
moth-eaten easily and is very light and thin and easy
to deform.
Before storage, we should wash it clear, then air-dry
it or blow dry it with blower, no matter how many times
we have wore it.
Fold it carefully to avoid wrinkling. Dot not fold it
for many times. Do not hang it for fear it may deform.
Cover it with plastic bag and put some insect-resist
agent into the bag, then seal it carefully.
Washing method:
1 Turn over the cashmere sweater from inside to outside.
Cut out a paper shape whose size equals to that of the
cashmere sweater.
2 If there is too much dirt on the clothes, dip it in
the foaming neutral lotion water whose temperature is
35 C for 15-30 minutes. Do not use the lotion that contains
enzyme or bleaching chemical aids to avoid erosion and
fading of the clothes.
3 If there is not much dirt on the clothes, put the
neutral lotion in to the 35C water first, then put the
clothes in to the water after foaming. Then pat and
knead the clothes.
4 Jacquard or multicolor cashmere sweater is more unsuitable
for dipping, which may cause cross-color.
5 Wash it with 35-40 C water for two or three times.
Then we can put some vinegar or softener in the final
clean water, which will make the hand touch of the clothes
better. Put the folded and washed cashmere sweater on
the hypotenuse, press it slightly and extrude the water
with your hands or put it into cloth bag or mesh bag
to be dewatered in the dewatering canister of washing
machine.
6 Spread out the clothes for air-drying. Do not hang
it with clothes rack for fear it may deform.
7 Spread the clothes flat according to the cut paper
shape and neaten its outline. Iron it with the steam
iron of medium temperature (about 140 C). Do not press
the iron on the cashmere sweater directly. Please remember
to pad a piece of wet towel when you are doing dry ironing.
