Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin your project, ensure you have sufficient Hayfield Bonus DK yarn in your chosen colors, as consistency in yarn weight is essential for the garment to fit the 14-inch scale correctly. Verify your needle size against the pattern requirements before casting on, as gauge variations will significantly alter the final garment size. For garment care, hand wash finished items in lukewarm water with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry; this preserves the stitch definition and prevents the delicate miniature fibers from stretching or distorting. When storing, keep finished doll clothes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber fading.
