ABOUT THIS YARN:

* These are NOT hand-dyed by me, the thread is already dyed when I receive it

* Separate strands are wound together to create a gradient as you work. They are NOT plied (twisted) like traditional yarn.

* There is a knot in one strand where each color change occurs. These can easily be worked into your pattern while you knit or crochet and should not affect your finished piece. Other knots may occur occasionally from the manufacturer.

* Wound into center-pull cakes. Incremental Gradients are wound with the shorter yardage in the center and should be worked from the center.

* It does take some getting used to working with this yarn, but the results are stunning if you take your time and make sure to catch each strand as you work. Once you get used to working with it, you will not even notice it is unplied and will be back up to your normal working speed.

PLEASE NOTE:

* Be sure to purchase enough yardage to finish your project

* While a similar colorway may be offered again, they may not be from the same dye lot. Please ask if you are unsure if a color is the same as a previously purchased item. Be sure to purchase enough for your project to be on the safe side.

* In some instances I may have small amounts from the dye lot I used left over and can get you some to finish a small section, but do not count on that, I cannot guarantee I will have them. Please contact me to check on availability.

CARE:

* Finished item can be machine washed and dried, but hand washing is recommended

* Some bleeding may occur, may be best to hand wash separately the first couple of times

* Hand washing also helps to keep the fiber from fading as fast
