- Take regular breaks to avoid fatigue and strain.
- Check your work often: Undoing several rows can cost you hours. It’s important to verify your work regularly. You can easily forget a square, miss a color change, or forget to start decreases.

For children under 3 years old, use OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 Class I yarn.
