Caring for your embroidery

Washing

• ✶ Turn the garment inside out. This is the single biggest thing you can do.
• ✶ Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
• ✶ Skip bleach and fabric softener; both are hard on thread over time.
• ✶ Hand wash delicate pieces like linens and baby blankets when you can.

Drying

• ✶ Hang dry or lay flat for the longest life.
• ✶ Tumble dry low is fine for everyday pieces like tees and hoodies.
• ✶ Avoid high heat; it’s the fabric that suffers before the thread does.

Ironing & storage

• ✶ Iron inside out, or place a thin cloth between the iron and the stitching.
• ✶ Never iron directly on the embroidery; pressing flattens the raised texture.
• ✶ Store folded or hung as usual. Thread doesn’t need special treatment.
• ✶ If a loose thread ever appears, don’t pull it. Snip it, or send it to us and we’ll fix it free under the lifetime guarantee.

Hats & structured pieces

Spot clean caps with a damp cloth and mild soap rather than machine washing, which can warp the brim. The embroidery itself can handle anything; it’s the hat we’re protecting.
