Care & Maintenance
To keep your crochet co-ord looking fresh and vibrant, hand wash in cool water with a gentle detergent. Avoid bleach and heavy wringing—instead, gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. The delicate crochet texture benefits from careful handling, and this approach ensures longevity. Store on hangers or folded flat in a cool, dry space to maintain the garment’s shape and color vibrancy.

Each colorway is versatile enough to pair with your existing wardrobe while making a distinct statement.
