Caring for Crocheted Cotton
General Care
Gentle Handling: Handle your crocheted item with care to avoid stretching or distorting the stitches.
Storage: Store your item in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and deterioration. Avoid hanging items with leather loops to prevent stretching.
Cleaning
Hand Wash: For best results, hand wash your crocheted cotton item in cold water with a mild detergent.
Spot Clean Leather: Avoid soaking any leather parts. Spot clean it with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then wipe dry.
Rinse: Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue from the cotton.
Air Dry: Lay your crocheted item flat on a clean, dry towel and reshape it while damp. Avoid wringing or twisting.
Maintenance
Metal Rivet Care: If the metal rivet shows signs of tarnish, gently clean it with a soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
Leather Conditioning: Occasionally condition the leather loop with a leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
Usage Tips
Avoid Overloading: If your item is used for carrying or holding objects, avoid overloading it to maintain its shape and integrity.
Mindful Usage: Use your crocheted item for its intended purpose to ensure its longevity.
