Note: For sleeves, you will need to use magic loop method when using size US 17 (12 mm) circular needles, 32’’ (80 cm). To avoid magic loop for sleeves, you can use an additional size US 17 (12 mm) circular 20’’ (50 cm) needles.
Care: Hand wash or machine wash cold, tumble dry. Please test any washing/drying method on a small swatch to ensure you like the end result. As our cotton is chunky, un-mercerized, and minimally processed to preserve the fiber’s natural softness and elasticity, it is more prone to shedding. Washing and drying should help alleviate this. For further information and tips, please consult our Fiber Care Guide.
Yarn made in Italy, kit assembled in the USA.
