Colours
Every effort is made to present the yarn colours accurately, however, as yarn is dyed in lots and as computer monitors render colour differently, variations may occur.
Tension and Ply
The Ply information provided on this website is a guide only.
We recommend, the most accurate way to begin when hand knitting is to follow the instructions for each yarn/pattern and knit a tension square.
