Helpful Hints:
This is an oiled yarn, so will have to be knitted on a higher tension and then hand or cool washed to scour out the oil, which will cause the fabric to fill out and soften. Knit using 2 strands on a 5 gauge (Standard Gauge) on high tension. If weaving, may be used for the weft or the warp, remember for best results, warp must be evenly setup. When dyeing, best starter colour will be the Ecru 230 shade.
