Troubleshooting

Running out of yarn

While generous, ensure you are using consistent stitch lengths to maximize yarn usage. If a color is completely depleted, contact the manufacturer for potential replacements, though this is unlikely with standard kits.

Stitches look uneven

Maintain consistent tension while stitching. Ensure the needle goes through the same holes each time. Referring to the front sheet picture can help maintain visual consistency.

Difficulty threading the needle

The included needle is designed for the yarn. If difficult, slightly twist the end of the yarn before threading. Alternatively, a needle threader can be used if available.
