Washing A Pashmina

• It is advisable to always go with dry cleaning when it comes to Pashmina. It allows deeper cleansing of the fabric without compromising the safety of its lean threads and colors.


• You can flaunt the beauty of a Pashmina shawl for a whole season without washing or cleaning it, the elegant apparel does not lose its sheen. In case you need to wash your shawl and scarf at home, use cold water and soft cleaning agents such as baby shampoo. Gently wash the Pashmina article, remove any excess water and let it dry in shade.

Storing A Pashmina

• Once your warm shawls are cleaned and ready to rest till the next winter, mindfully place them in a cool, dry, and clean place. Fold the shawl and wrap it in a fine cloth such as muslin to ensure that its seamless feel lasts for a long. You can also use zip-lock bags to keep moths and dampness out.


• Do not put naphthalene balls with your Pashminas, because they can mess with its unique appearance and leave back a seething smell. Instead, you can use lavender or lilac placed in pouches to protect the shawls from bugs.


• If you see a thread rip running across your Pashmina, just follow its trail by gently putting your fingernail on it, in the manner of scratching. Do not apply too much pressure since the weave of Pashmina is subtle and this could mess with its fine threads.


• Make sure that the stored Pashmina is taken out from its resting place and allowed some fresh air to keep the moths away from your shawls and scarves.


• Protect your Pashminas from extreme heat and direct sunlight because it is not good for the fabric's texture. Similarly, hanging a Pashmina can cause the yarns to lose their snugness, thus it is always advised to fold your shawls.


• Brush your shawls after wearing them to remove small amounts of dust collected in the Pashmina fabric. If you observe any dampness or dust patch on the Pashmina, visit your dry cleaner to get it removed.


• A Pashmina in a household can be passed from one generation to the next as an heirloom. Its exquisite designs and intricate weaving, when protected carefully with these suggestions, will remain in your family, warming you up with the love and beauty of this traditional Indian apparel.
