Washing Instructions:
Wash in cool water, gentle cycle, then tumble or air dry. These socks are durable and can be washed easily without excessive shrinkage or felting. Alpaca socks have a lower percentage of shrinkage than socks made from other natural fibers.
Because alpaca yarn has elasticity, alpaca socks may look smaller after washing but will return to their original size, to fit.
Alpaca socks wick away moisture, so feet will stay dry and odor free. (It is unnecessary to wash these socks after every wearing)
