Knitwear
The best yarns make the best knits, which is why we work with the finest European yarn manufacturers. We only choose the finest natural fibers for our yarns: cashmere, alpaca and merino. At Closed, we condemn animal abuse and are committed to sustainable production and animal welfare. Our fabric and yarn suppliers assure us that the animal fibers used for Closed products come only from farms that comply with international production guidelines. These define a species-appropriate treatment of animals that naturally excludes such cruel practices as mulesing. We have signed Four Paws’ Brand Letter of Intent to officially call for a mulesing-free wool industry and have already taken many steps to guarantee mulesing-free wool. Season after season, our fabric and yarn suppliers assure us that the animal fibers used for Closed products come only from farms that comply with international production guidelines. These define a species-appropriate treatment of animals. In addition, we demand certificates from our suppliers to prove the origin of all wool or wool-mix yarns and fabrics.
How to take care of your knitwear
Care for our knitwear is easier than you might think. Most Closed pieces can be put into the washing machine and washed on a 30-degree wool cycle using a special detergent (apart from merino wool, where normal detergent is required). Generally, knitwear should be dried flat. Place a towel underneath to avoid leaving a striped pattern from the drying rack. Particularly delicate pieces ought to be turned inside out, put into a laundry bag, and then washed. When you spot those small pills, do not reach for the scissors – use a special pilling comb instead.
Please be sure to check the care label, as some of our knits require special treatments.
