ERIBÉ Sizing and Care Information
Size Information
WOMEN'S SLIM FIT
Sizes are taken with the garment flat measured.
Due to the natural properties of wool, allow tolerance of 1-2 cm for each garment.
REGULAR FIT: Add approximately 2-3 cm to chest width and body length.
EASY FIT: Sizes are split - choose smaller to wear more fitted, or larger for a looser look.
OVERSIZED FIT: Usual sizes don't apply. Some garments can almost be worn one size.
Caring for your ERIBÉ Knitwear
It is perfectly normal that when you first wear a pure wool garment, loose fibres near the surface rub together during movement and form little balls of wool known as pilling or bobbling. ERIBÉ have put together this simple guide to help you beat the bobbles and keep your ERIBÉ garment looking fantastic for many years to come.
Handwash is Best
This is the gentlest way to wash your knitwear and the best way to avoid shrinkage and minimise pilling. Wash by hand in tepid water.
Wash your knitwear inside out
Any pilling caused by washing will be on the inside not the outside.
Use gentle, liquid detergent
Add a small amount of liquid hand-soap and soak the garment in lukewarm water for 5 minutes. NEver use regular washing detergent as this can damgae the fibres.
Squeeze, don't rub or wring
To wash the garment you must gently squeeze, without rubbing, the garment in the water. Lay your damp garment on a large bath town. Gently roll the town and the garment together much like a Swizz roll to remover the excess water.
Air dry flat
Pull gently to size and allow to dry flat on a clean towel away from direct heat sources such as radiators. When dry, press to shape using a damp towel or lightly steam by holding a steam iron just above the surface of the garment.
Remove any pilling
When the garment is completely dry, gently remove the small pill either by hand or with a hand-help sweater comb or razor - NEVER us scissors. By doing this after each of the first 3-4 washes, you will find that the pilling subsides and will eventually disappear.
