Quick answer
The Navy Stripe Knit Sweater is a lightweight cotton piece ideal for layering on cool summer evenings. For best results, machine wash cold and hang dry to prevent shrinking.
Why care matters for this knit
Made from 100% cotton, the Navy Stripe Knit Sweater is breathable and gentle on baby's skin. However, cotton knits can shrink or lose shape if washed in hot water or tossed in the dryer. Following the care instructions—cold machine wash and hang dry—keeps the stripes crisp and the fit relaxed.
How to style and care for the Navy Stripe Knit Sweater
- 1. Style with shorts or leggings: Pair the sweater with cotton shorts for a playful summer look, or with soft leggings for cooler evenings. The relaxed fit allows easy movement and layering. Avoid heavy layers underneath to maintain the breathable feel.
- 2. Machine wash cold: Turn the sweater inside out and wash on a cold, gentle cycle with like colors. Use a mild detergent to protect the cotton fibers. Hot water can cause shrinkage and fade the navy stripes.
- 3. Hang dry only: Lay flat or hang the sweater to dry away from direct heat. Do not use a tumble dryer, as high heat can shrink the cotton and distort the shape. If you must speed drying, use a low-heat setting and remove while still slightly damp.
- 4. Store folded, not hung: Fold the sweater and place it in a drawer or on a shelf. Hanging can stretch the neckline over time. For long-term storage, use a breathable garment bag to prevent dust.
