Maintenance
Wash your cardigan by hand or in the washing machine on the "wool" cycle at <30 degrees with a mild detergent. Rinse with clean water without using softener. Squeeze without wringing and dry flat in a ventilated area.
To keep your jumper for a long time, space out the washings and use little detergent. If there is an unwanted smell, simply air it out for a few hours.
Do not wear your jumper for several days in a row, but let it "rest". Store it flat in an unconfined area and avoid hanging it up.
