Hand wash, or machine wash cold on a delicate cycle, then lay flat to dry. No dryer and no dry cleaning. Because the fabric is woven, small threading variations are natural rather than a fault. Keep it away from rings and rough jewelry, and if a thread pulls, do not cut it. Tug the fabric gently in every direction and the weave will settle back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 1.15em; margin: 2em 0 .5em;\"\u003eMade by hand\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.7; margin: 0 0 1em;\"\u003eSewn by hand, one seam at a time.
