The height of the characters is approximately 2cm and in the Marr Sans font. This can sometimes vary depending upon the choice of letters, the number of letters chosen and the size of the scarf. We monogram tone on tone with the colours in the scarf you choose, unless stated otherwise.

 

How do you wash the knitwear? 

We would recommend hand washing your cashmere knitwear in lukewarm water using a cashmere shampoo, rinse several times in clean lukewarm water. Gently squeeze to remove excess water, then lay to dry on a flat surface. Iron on a cool setting, always using a damp cloth to protect the fibres from the irons direct heat.

Alternatively, dry clean using a specialist cashmere dry cleaners.

Do not bleach or mix colours when handwashing.

How do I wash my scarf? 

All our scarves are recommended as dry clean only due to the delicate nature of the fibres. If necessary, spot clean with a clean, damp cloth and blot, but do not rub as this will cause fibre distortion. Should pilling appear, a cashmere comb can be used to remove any small surface pills.
