To use this sweatshirt, simply put it on like any other top. It's great for casual outings, Halloween events, or just staying warm at home. When it comes to washing, turn it inside out and use a gentle cycle with cold water. This helps protect the embroidery and the fabric. Avoid using bleach as it can damage the colors. After washing, you can tumble dry on low heat. Hang it up to dry if you want to be extra careful. For ironing, set your iron to a low - heat setting and iron on the reverse side to prevent any damage to the embroidery.
