Care Guide for the Heavy-Zip Knit
Washing your Knit
You don’t. Simple as.
Your Heavy Zip Knit is made of 100% wool, an organic fibre that takes care of bacteria responsible for bad smells.
And if your jumper has soaked up the smells of your night’s dinner or passively inhaled the smoke of nearby smokers you can easily freshen up, by leaving it outside for a few hours, and let the wind do its thing.
If you really do want to give it a wash, no more than once or twice a year is fine. You might want to consider a specialist, as in a dry-cleaner. If you want to do it yourself, it's handwash only and in cold water.
Rinse it very delicately without wringing too much or you'd risk damaging the fibres and your knit would lose its shape.

Drying it
Whatever you do, no tumble-dryer. Just let it dry laid flat al fresco.
Also don't put in on a hanger to dry as a heavyweight garment like your Knit might start stretching more than you'd want it to.

Ironing it
You might want to iron it to put the wool back in line, with a gentle heat (no more than 150°C), a few presses with the stream iron will do the trick and restore its original look.
