Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, use 4.00mm knitting needles or a 4.00mm crochet hook, adjusting as necessary to match your pattern's tension requirements. For care, this yarn is fully machine washable. It is recommended to wash on a cool setting and tumble dry at a low temperature to preserve the softness of the fibers over time. Always perform a small tension swatch before starting a full garment to ensure your stitch count matches the requirements of your chosen pattern.
