FAQs

What is the recommended needle/hook size?

Needle/hook size will vary based on your chosen pattern, but generally, use a 5mm (US 8) needle or hook.

Can I use this yarn for baby items?

Yes, the soft acrylic blend is often suitable for baby projects, but always check the pattern and wash the finished item before use.

How do I care for a finished project?

Machine wash on a wool cycle, dry flat, and do not iron or tumble dry. Always wash dark colors separately.

Can I felt this yarn?

No, Jewelspun is not suitable for felting due to its acrylic composition.

What should I do if the yarn tangles?

Where can I find patterns for this yarn?

Look at the Sirdar website, or online knitting and crochet pattern sites.

Troubleshooting
