How to keep plus size cardigans looking their best

Keeping plus size cardigans in good shape starts with simple fabric care habits that help the knits stay soft, smooth, and ready for layering. Most yarns respond well to cool, gentle washes that protect the fibers and prevent stretching, especially when worn over tanks or plus size tops. Laying cardigans flat to dry also helps them hold their natural drape so the fit stays consistent over time. With a little mindful care, each piece maintains its comfort and appearance through repeat wear.

• Wash on cool, gentle settings to protect fibers
• Reshape and lay flat to dry to prevent stretching
• Store folded instead of hanging to avoid pull
• Treat snags carefully to maintain texture
