Cashmere Care

Learn how to properly treat and store your cashmere.

What is Pilling?

Pilling is a natural process where loose fibers become tangled and form small balls on the surface of the fabric. Contrary to what some may think, it is not a sign of poor quality—it's actually a testament to the fine, delicate nature of cashmere. With the right care and the proper tools, your cashmere can be revived, maintaining its soft, luxurious appearance as fresh as the day you first purchased it. With our simple guide, learn how to care for and refresh your cashmere.

The Pink & Ginger Cashmere Guide

With The Pink & Ginger Cashmere Guide, discover the best ways to clean and care for your cashmere. Follow these easy steps to restore the luxurious softness and delicate beauty of your pieces.
  1. Remove Pilling - Start by gently removing any pilling from the surface of your cashmere garment. While you can do this by hand, we recommend using a cashmere comb for a quick and effective result.

  2. Soak - Fill a basin with cold water and add a small amount of cashmere shampoo. Let your garment soak for no more than 30 minutes to preserve its delicate fibers.

  3. Gently Squeeze - After soaking, gently press out excess water—never wring your cashmere, as this can distort its shape. Instead, roll the garment up and press lightly to remove water.

  4. Rinse - Rinse the garment thoroughly in lukewarm water, ensuring that all the shampoo is completely washed out.

  5. Dry - Lay your cashmere flat on a towel in a cool, shaded area, away from direct sunlight or heat. Once it feels dry to the touch, remove it from the towel.

  6. Iron - To finish, gently press your cashmere with an iron set to a cool temperature, smoothing out any remaining wrinkles.
