Special Notes from Manufacturer:

• Use the outside end of the ball for knitting.

• Needles: If you feel the yarn is slippery to handle, try using wooden or bamboo needles.

• Join new balls: Using the Braided Join, the Russian join, or the magic knot method.

• Blocking: We recommend filling a bowl/bucket with water, submerging your swatch or garment and lightly squeezing it until there are no bubbles.

  Do not soak. Remove swatch/garment from water and squeeze as much water out of it as you can.

  Roll in a towel and step on it to remove as much water as possible. Stretch it, lay flat, pin sides and let dry completely.
