MHH Spectator Scarf: Style and Care Guide

Quick answer

Hand wash your MHH Spectator Scarf in cold water and lay it flat to dry to preserve the double-sided design and fringe.

How to care for your MHH Spectator Scarf

1. Check for stains before washing: Spot clean any stains with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Rub gently — do not scrub — to avoid damaging the weave or fringe. Common mistake: rubbing too hard can cause the acrylic fibers to pill or the fringe to fray.
2. Hand wash in cold water: Fill a basin with cold water and add a small amount of mild detergent. Submerge the scarf and gently agitate it for 2–3 minutes. Do not wring or twist. Common mistake: using hot water can cause the home and away colors to bleed into each other.
3. Rinse thoroughly and press out water: Drain the soapy water and refill with cold water. Rinse until no suds remain. Press the scarf between clean towels to remove excess moisture — never wring. Common mistake: wringing stretches the acrylic fibers and distorts the scarf shape.
4. Lay flat to dry away from heat: Place the scarf flat on a drying rack or a clean towel, reshaping it to its original dimensions. Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. Common mistake: hanging the scarf to dry can stretch it, and heat sources can shrink acrylic.
5. Store folded, not hung: Fold the scarf neatly and store it in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging it for long periods, as the weight can stretch the mid-weight acrylic. Common mistake: hanging the scarf by the fringe can cause the yarn to pull and create uneven ends.
