Enjoy your alpaca socks longer by following these simple care instructions. 

These care tips will preserve the quality of your alpaca socks:

  • Machine or hand wash with cool or cold water. 
  • Turn socks inside out to retain their finish.
  • Do not use bleach.
  • Hang dry or lay flat to dry.
  • Avoid the tumble dryer to make your socks last longer. 
  • Do not use heat if they do go into the dryer.
