Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your project, it is essential to knit a tension square to ensure your gauge matches the pattern requirements, which will prevent fit issues. This pattern is designed for any King Cole double knitting yarn. Once the garments are completed, hand-wash them in cool water with a gentle wool detergent and lay them flat to dry. Avoid wringing or twisting the miniature items, as this can distort the delicate knit structure. Store the finished garments in a dust-free environment to maintain their condition over time.
