It is suitable for machine washing on a cold or gentle cycle, and dries best flat to maintain shape. It performs well even after several washes, retaining both colour and texture.

How to use Cotton Royal Color Waves yarn

Cotton Royal Color Waves is easy to work with and designed to be comfortable for both knitting and crochet. The cotton has a stable twist and does not split while stitching.

Practical tips:

▷ Use 4 mm needles for good drape and stitch definition
▷ A 4–5 mm crochet hook gives airy but well-defined results
▷ The gradient works best in single-piece projects
▷ Wash cold or on a delicate cycle; always dry flat
▷ Avoid tumble drying and hot water to preserve colour

Pro tip: If you'd like to control the start of the gradient, begin from the centre of the ball and maintain order when joining a new skein to avoid colour inversion.
