Ensure you are using the correct size needle or hook for the yarn weight. Check that the yarn is feeding smoothly from the skein. Sometimes a slight adjustment in grip can help prevent splitting.

The unique texture can sometimes affect tension. Practice a few rows or rounds to get a feel for the yarn before starting your main project. Try to maintain a consistent grip and movement.

Dye lots can vary. Always check the dye lot number on your skeins and ensure all skeins for a single project have the same dye lot number. If dye lots differ, consider alternating skeins every few rows to blend the variations.
