Care Instructions
Machine wash cold with cold water & dry flat
A little extra care will ensure you prolong the life of your projects. Most of our yarns are machine-washable on a cool, delicate cycle, however hand-washing in cold water with a small amount of wool wash is highly recommended. Lay flat to dry, never use a dryer. Washing your gauge swatch is advised, especially if using contrasted, dark, or saturated colors.

Bleeding
If you are experiencing bleeding/rubbing off/staining issues, there are a few ways to solve this depending on how far along in the project you are.
