Please note: yarn that is prepared on cones for machine knitting is lightly waxed so it will run well in the machine. Once knit, it needs to be washed before you can feel how soft it is.

Suggested Care: Hand or machine gentle wash with delicate detergent. Warm water and multiple washes are recommended to bring out softness.

Please be aware that the colors shown may vary from screen to screen in the same way that shades may vary slightly from dye lot to dye lot.

Shipping: We reserve the right to combine shipping for multiple orders placed before the initial shipment has been processed. This allows us to ensure efficient packaging and delivery.
