FAQs
Is this yarn suitable for baby clothes?

Can I use this yarn for crochet?
While optimized for knitting, this 3-ply acrylic yarn is also excellent for crochet projects like amigurumi and accessories.
How many meters are in one ball?
Each 50g ball contains approximately 80 meters of yarn.
Will the color fade after washing?
The yarn is colorfast when washed at the recommended temperature of 40 °C, ensuring the light yellow shade remains vibrant.
What is the recommended needle size?

Troubleshooting
Yarn tangles during use
Work from the center-pull strand if possible; if it tangles, wind the remaining yarn into a loose ball before resuming.
Stitches look uneven
Check your tension and ensure you are using the recommended 4mm needle size. If the issue persists, try adjusting how you hold the yarn to maintain consistent pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best results, use standard 4mm knitting needles or crochet hooks. Before starting your main project, create a 10x10 cm tension square to confirm your gauge.
For maintenance, the yarn is machine washable at 40 °C. To preserve the vibrancy and texture of your finished work, it is recommended to wash items inside a laundry bag. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents, and always lay flat to dry whenever possible to help the acrylic fibers retain their original shape and structure over time.
