Can cashmere be hand washed?

Yes, cashmere can be safely hand washed if done gently. Use cold or lukewarm water with a mild wool detergent or baby shampoo. Avoid twisting or wringing—simply press out water and lay the item flat on a towel to dry. Hand washing maintains fiber softness and elasticity, preventing shrinkage or distortion. Many luxury brands recommend alternating between gentle hand washes and professional dry cleaning to preserve the garment’s structure and sheen.
