Sferra Dorsey Cashmere Throw or Wrap {{{SHRUNK}}}

Please explain to me how someone can take a $600 cashmere throw and toss it in the laundry like it's a T-shirt. Ok...looking at the positives: it's still insanely soft and now even thicker. It's clean. And it still has many uses, even at it's smaller size: wear it as a stylish wrap, use as a lap blanket while reading or watching TV, or as a baby blanket for those babies who refuse to sleep with anything less than cashmere. For reference, I am 5'4" and can wrap this around my upper body just fine and it's long enough to cover my legs while sitting with room to spare.
