ZOMANA LEINENSCHAL

Brought this on vacation and wore it out for sightseeing straight out of the package. My black shirt was covered in lint as soon as I i put it on. I also noticed the shawl was very itchy. When I took it off, i found my shirt was also super itchy. I had to buy a new shirt at a gift shop.

No tag with laundering instructions, so I washed it with cold water on delicate cycle as soon as I got home, then tumbled on low heat in the dryer. It came out with all the black stitched edging very wavy and with linen visible between where the stitches had clustered. I'm ironing it now with a spray bottle of water. I am able to mostly flatten the edging and get it looking crisp again.

I think this would be a 5 star product if it came pre-washed (and with care instructions). But I'm going to be ironing for a couple hours and i haven't tried it on yet to see if it's still itchy. Very glad I only bought a relatively inexpensive shawl from this company. If I'd bought the matching dress, I'd be crying.
