When it’s cold outside, there’s no better feeling than throwing on a sweater to keep you warm and cozy. Unless, that is, your sweater happens to be itchy. The quality and type of fabric a sweater is made of can mean the difference between curling up in comfort and scratching at your poor skin all day long, but if you’ve got an itchy sweater, don’t rush to throw it away just yet—read on for some tips on how to make it more comfortable.

Soak & Wash

Soaking your sweater in a mixture of water and shampoo will help to soften the fibers without compromising the shape of the garment. Start by filling a bucket with lukewarm water and one to two tablespoons of baby shampoo, then place your sweater in the solution and agitate gently to ensure all of the fibers are saturated. Leave it to sit for about 20 minutes, then rinse thoroughly or run it through a wash cycle to remove soap residue. 

Fabric Softener

While fabric softener is effective at taming unruly fibers, most fabric softeners work by leaving a film over material, which can reduce breathability and make clothing less comfortable over time. That said, if all else fails, try soaking your sweater in a sink or bucket filled with warm water with a capful of fabric softener for up to one hour. Rinse thoroughly, then gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat to dry.

Give it a Freeze

We know, putting your sweater in the freezer sounds odd, but hear us out. Like the cool setting on your hair dryer, the cold air works to make the fabric less itchy by smoothing down fibers that may stick out and cause irritation. Start by washing and drying your sweater, then place it inside a plastic bag in the freezer overnight. Take it out in the morning, and voila—comfy cozy.

Spring is here and our closet needs a transition for this season. However, there are a few winter outfits that we are sad to store back. Here are some of the favorite winter pieces that the editors of InStyle admitted were having a hard time returning to storage.

Turtleneck Sweater

Assistant Fashion Editor, Ann Jacoby said, “I live for a good turtleneck and always mourn the moment I have to put them away for next season.”

Faux Fur Scarf

E-commerce Editor, Alexis Bennett stated, “I am going to miss cuddling up with my faux fur scarves. Wrapping one of the soft, fuzzy wraps around my neck on a chilly winter day is like getting a cozy hug from your best friend.”

Chelsea Boot

Mark Editor, Kristina Rutwoski mentioned, “Chelsea boots are a favorite shoe for me during colder months. I especially love Dr. Martens take on the classic boot.They are comfortable, sturdy, and the best part: don’t require a pedicure!”

Oversized Sweater

Assistant Fashion Editor, Alexis Parente said,”I don’t know how I am going to put away my Everlane wool cashmere oversized sweater. I find myself wearing this sweater to work with trousers during the week and paired with leggings on the weekend.”

Velvet Track Pants

Jenna Pizzuta, a fashion assistant, siad “It’s going to be hard to part ways with my Hudson Jeans velvet track pants. They are my winter go-to pant for weekend errands”

Fitted Ribbed knit

Elana Zajdman, Accessories Editor expressed her feelings, “There are few things I love more than a fitted ribbed sweater! Whether in black or a dreamy color like this marigold shade, I don’t know how I’d get dressed in the morning if I eliminated them from my wardrobe.”

Faux Fur Jacket

Assistant Market editor, LaShauna Williams said, “I’m not big on fur for the day but my favorite evening coat this winter was my faux fur from Unreal Fur. It feels so luxe and looks perfect with nighttime attire.”
