Washing Instructions for Wool: Wash by hand in mild soap flakes, cold water soap or mild
detergent. Squeeze suds through but do not rub. Be sure soap is thoroughly dissolved before
immersing the item and test the water for tepid, lukewarm temperature. Do not soak for more
than a few minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Be sure that no soap remains in garment. Always support
the garment in your hands when lifting from water to prevent stretching. Never wring or twist,
just squeeze gently. Roll garments in terry towel to absorb excess moisture. Shape garment on
smooth surface to original size. Keep away from heat and sunlight which may affect white
and pastels.
Important
A few drops of white vinegar in final rinse sets the color and prevents "bleeding" of one
color into another. This is very helpful especially when white is combined with other colors.
Washing Instructions for Nantuk Yarns: Use method most convenient for you. Turn garment
inside out.
Machine Laundering: Set at moderate temperature and cycle using suitable soap or
detergent. A fabric softener is recommended in final rinse. Do not use chlorine bleach. Machine
washed items should be machine dried. Hand Washing: Use cold or warm water. Follow same
instructions as for wool. Machine dry at moderate temperature and cycle, or hand dry same as
wool. Do not hang knits or crochets. Do not dry in sunlight.

work directions in brackets as many times as indicated by the number
immediately following.
Gauge
inch which appears at the beginning of all
fit of your project. Before starting, make a
sample swatch of the pattern stitch with the
hook and yarn specified.
If you get MORE stitches to the inch than
called for, use a LARGER hook.
If you get FEWER stitches to the inch than
called for, use a SMALLER hook.
The size of the hook used does not matter as
long as your stitch gauge is correct.
To Make a Pompon
Cut two cardboard circles the desired size of
pompon; cut out hole in center of both. The larger
the hole the thicker the pompon. Thread needle
with two strands of yarn. Place circles together.
Working through holes, wind with yarn until
desired thickness. Slip scissors between disks. Cut
through all strands at outer edge. Draw new strand
of yarn between circles and wind several times very
tightly around cut strands; knot, leaving ends for
trim ends.
To Make a Tassel
Place short strand of yarn across top of
cardboard cut to length ol tassel desired.
Wind yarn several times around cardboard.
Tie strands tightly together around top as
shown, leaving at least 3" ends on ties; clip
1" below tie and knot. Trim ends.
To Make Fringe
Cut strands of yam desired length and place in
groups of 3 or more strands according to the
thickness required. With the wrong side of the edge
near the edge as possible, fold strands in half to
lorm a loop, put loop on hook, pull through edge
of work, place hook behind all strands of yarn and
Chain Stitch
All crochet starts with a basic chain.
Hold slip knot with thumb and middle finger. Bring
chain stitch.
This is the foundation for all crochet stitches. Practice
until you can make chains even in size.
Slip Stitch
6. Make a chain desired length. Insert hook into 2nd chain
from hook under the top 2 strands, yarn over hook
and draw through chain and loop on hook.
7. Repeat in every chain across.
To Make a Ring
8. Chain as many stitches as needed. Insert hook in first
chain. Yarn over hook, draw through chain and loop on
hook, then tighten.
