Care instructions:
For longest enjoyment of the natural prints and colours please:
Wash inside out with cold water and mild/gentle (neutral pH) detergent.
Hang inside out in shade to dry.

Consistent, regular exposure to sunlight will cause the dyes to fade much faster, as is the case with most dyed natural fibres.

Noting in case of any topical allergies or sensitivities - traces of iron sulphate, soy or alum may be present due to the botanical printing process.

THIS IS AN UPCYCLED GARMENT. I have not sewn this top myself.
