Care The best care for your knits is often less: air it out between wears, and wash only when really needed. It's better for the fibres and the earth. If you feel like your knit needs a refresh, hover a steaming iron over it. The steam will fluff up and settle the fibres, and any slight stretching from wear will be repaired.
When your mohair knit does need cleaning, hand wash it, using luke warm water and a gentle detergent. Do not wring or rub.
Squeeze the water out; to remove more water, squeeze between towels.
Lay flat to dry; reshape while damp.
Store flat.
Mohair pills less than merino wool, and the pills that do form, tend to be large and loose. Simply pull them off by hand.
