Silk Care Guide 

Quick touch-ups:

• Steam or iron on the lowest silk setting to remove fold lines.
  
• Use a clean cotton cloth between the iron and the silk.
  
• If you prefer no heat, gently use the scarf and hang it—creases will ease out naturally.
  

Washing:

• Wash silk sparingly.
  
• Hand wash only, in lukewarm (not hot) water with a mild silk-safe detergent.
  
• Swish gently—don’t rub, twist, or wring.
  
• Rinse until the water runs clear.
  

Drying:

• Remove excess water by pressing between towels.
  
• Dry flat on a clean towel, out of direct sunlight.
  
• Don’t hang silk while wet to avoid stretching.
  

Storage:

• Store in a cool, dry, sun-free space.
  
• Leave space between scarves to prevent snagging.
  

Stains:

• Blot, never rub.
  
• For water-based stains, dab gently with a silk-safe detergent.
  
• For oil stains, use a little talcum powder to absorb oils.
  
• When unsure, use a professional dry cleaner experienced with silk.
  

Avoid:

• Harsh detergents, bleach, fabric softener.
  
• Perfume or hairspray after the scarf is on.
  
• Washing machines, dryers, and plastic storage bags.
