As the season changes it's time to check the status of your knitwear and get it ready for colder days. Here are a few things worth doing to make sure you're all set!
1. Look for holes and get mending -- if there are small holes from a pull, general wear or even moths we always recommend checking to see if you can have knitwear mended. You may even have a Gran or MIL who can help! Getting another season out of an old favorite is always a great feeling!
2. Check for dirt/odors & wash -- while the weather is still warm it's a great time to do a hand wash and get everything clean at once. Hand washing can be a bit of a pain so the best way to do it is all in one go, then you can forget about it for a while! Be careful not to wash hot and use wool approved detergents sparingly.
3. Fit Check! Give them all a try on and make sure they fit and you have what you need. If something is still in good shape but hasn't had much wear consider donating, selling or consigning and investing in something you will wear!
