I’ve never owned a cashmere sweater before (or a cashmere anything, if you can believe that). I received 2 of them as gifts over the holidays, and I LOVE them! I know that they are hand wash only, but what are your tips and/or secrets to cashmere care? Thanks!

I have bought a medium cashmere tunic in a very fine knit but it is a little too big. If I wash it using a cashmere washing agent in cold water will the wool tighten? If I cannot shrink it very slightly I will have to send it back!
