Did you know that the skin and armpits wear out sweaters quickly? That’s why you should always wear a t-shirt under the sweater.
One that acts as a buffer that prevents sweat and deodorant residues from being absorbed into the sweater, whether it’s wool or cashmere. This significantly extends the useful life of the sweater.

Since knitwear should not be washed in water often, this way you can conveniently extend the washing interval. When you wear a t-shirt underneath, the knit stays clean longer, which also preserves its shape and the softness of the fiber.

In addition, the t-shirt prevents the sweater from itching and makes layering more pleasant, especially for people with sensitive skin. It’s also an easy and cheap way to add warming layers to your clothing, meaning you’ll stay warm better.
REMEMBER
Care for your sweaters like this:
- Cotton, viscose blends and synthetic fibers are usually machine washable.
- Woolen knitwear should be cleaned and freshened by airing, remove any stains and remove them locally.
- Steaming is a good option for refreshing a woolen sweater.
- Wool also likes to be brushed, which cleans the surface of the sweater and straightens the fibers, preventing pilling.
- If the woolen sweater requires washing, it is important to follow the recommended water temperature. Wool knitwear shrinks easily in too cold or hot water.
- It is good to wash cashmere woolen and silk knitwear by hand.
