Yup, I’ve never once in my life paid any attention to any of this, and I only ruined one sweater once. My wife was not happy, it was a brand new cashmere sweater from some brand name. Still though, if that’s my only screw up and amortized over a lifetime of not caring about this, still positive ROI for me. Twist ending: we saved the severely shrunken fancy sweater and now it fits my kids, so not a total loss.
- dayre 6y agoThis has been my experience as well. They should simplify these to just TEXTILE CARE SYMBOL CASHMERE SWEATER and TEXTILE CARE SYMBOL EVERYTHING ELSE.
- m_eiman 6y agoIf you wash the sweater in conditioner and lukewarm water you can (carefully) pull it into its original shape. #lifehack
- m_eiman 6y agoI probably mean ”soak” or ”handwash” rather than wash; I’m sure there’s an instructional video somewhere on the net.
