Product benefits

Tips for use
For larger single-color projects, it is recommended to alternate 2 rows from each of 2 balls of yarn to achieve a more even distribution of the color shades. This method helps balance any differences between the balls and produces a harmonious color result. Make a gauge swatch using the recommended 5.50 mm needles to check the gauge of 16 stitches and 24 rows per 10 x 10 cm. Wash the finished work at a maximum of 30°C and avoid tumble drying.
