Care Instructions:
Gentle hand wash with cold water; lay flat to dry for best results.

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.

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.
We strive to ensure that our photos accurately depict the true colors of our products. However, variations may occur depending on individual monitor settings.

Shipping: Please note that this is not an Amazon-style shopping experience. I process shipments in the order they are received. The order preparation time is typically 3 to 5 business days. Many of the orders are quite complex and involve multiple components, as I offer a wide range of formats, including different weights and winding options, such as balls and cones. As a result, it often takes considerable time to prepare even a single order.
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. Please note that refunds for combined shipping fees will not be issued in such cases. We appreciate your understanding and continued support.
