Preparation for Use

Before beginning your project, ensure your yarn is ready for use. The Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo yarn is designed for easy handling. Each skein in this factory pack shares the same dye lot, which helps ensure consistent color throughout your project.

• Unwinding: Gently pull the yarn from the center or outside of the skein, depending on your preference, to avoid tangles.
• Dye Lot Consistency: This product guarantees the same dye lot for the included skeins, minimizing color variations within your project.
• Project Bag: Utilize the included 13 x 16 inch project bag to keep your yarn and current project organized and portable.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your finished projects made with Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo yarn. Follow these guidelines for washing and drying:

• Washing: Machine wash your finished items.

• Bleaching: Do not bleach.
• Ironing: Do not iron.

Troubleshooting

While Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo yarn is generally easy to use, here are some common issues and tips:

• Yarn Tangles: If yarn tangles occur, gently work them out. Pulling too hard can worsen the tangle or break the strand. Consider using a yarn bowl or winding the skein into a ball for easier unwinding.
• Color Consistency: Although this product includes skeins from the same dye lot, slight variations can occur between different production batches. For large projects requiring more than two skeins, it is recommended to purchase all yarn at once to ensure the closest possible dye lot match.
• Splitting Yarn: If your needle or hook is splitting the yarn, try adjusting your tension or using a different type of needle/hook tip that is less pointed.
