INSTRUCTIONS

Before working with Caron x Pantone multishade yarn braid, separate each color link and wind into 5 separate balls. Each color link will be referenced by its Pantone™ color # (see label).

Due to finite amount of yarn in each shade, pattern tension must be matched to ensure successful results.
