If you're very busy and active it is possible to wash your clothes frequently. Children or pets can cause clothes to get dirty very quickly. The sweater will likely end in the laundry basket in the event that you don't have enough time to wash it yourself. In an effort to assist, your husband or some other person may hand wash it and then throw it in the laundry machine. This isn't the way to take care of a sweater that you hand-knit.
It's not just husbands and do-gooders who could cause damage to your clothing. If you own a cat that likes to play in the laundry, their claws could easily be caught on the sweater. If they attempt to get out, they'll pull your sweater apart and snag it in a massive way.
Some sweaters are easy to wash that you don't have to think about it. They never had to be hand washed and can be confidently tossed into the washer. Acrylic sweaters are washable and are dry. However, it is recommended to take the sweater off for a couple of minutes prior to drying and then dry on the line. Superwash wool is cleaned and dried in the dryer. The drying process can cause cotton to become discolored. To avoid this remove the cloth of the water and then dry it. Take note that different colors may spill out of the cotton.
Certain sweaters should not go into the machine. Wool will become welt and shrink. Mohair sweaters are less harmful than wool, and should be washed with a hand. Bamboo will swell when damp and will never behave the same ever again.
Never use metal hangers if you have to hang your garments in your closet. Use wide wooden hangers to make sure that your clothes don't get scratched. They will take up more room in your closet, so it is best to place your sweaters in your drawer after they've been washed and dried.
