Care Instructions
Care Instructions
As a general rule we recommend the following care for our garments:
• machine wash cold with like colours
• avoid bleach
• line dry in the shade if possible
• do not dry clean
• our prints are fine to iron over (as they are heat cured)
• designs can fade over time, and fading is hastened by frequent hot washes.

Forgot to add some stars, definitely a 5/5 from me.

I bought myself a Puteketeke in blue fro the Thorndon Fair this year and I love it!
Even better, I wore it to my physio appointment a couple of days later and had a lovely conversation with my therapist who had asked for one for Christmas. She was just as excited for it as I was. <3 <3 <3
