How to Use
Usage Instructions
- Gentle Hand Wash: Clean the poncho using a small amount of mild soap, lukewarm water, and a soft sponge to preserve the fabric's color and handwoven texture.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Do not place the poncho in a washing machine so that the agitation can not damage the handwoven serape fabric.
- Air Dry Only: After washing, lay the poncho flat or hang it to air dry in a well-ventilated area; avoid using a dryer or direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Store Flat or Folded: Keep it flat or lightly folded when you’re not using it. Put it away in a dry spot so it holds its shape.
Additional Information
Care Instructions
- Gentle Hand Wash: Wash it gently by hand using a little mild soap, lukewarm water, and a soft sponge.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Don’t put it in the washing machine, the strong spinning and movement can slowly loosen the Velcro over time.
- Air Dry Only: Let it air dry on its own. Lay it flat or hang it in a breezy spot, but keep it away from dryers and harsh direct sunlight so the colors stay bright.
- Store Flat or Folded: When not in use, keep the poncho flat or loosely folded in a dry area to maintain its shape and prevent unnecessary creasing of the serape material.
