care
Hand wash only. Caution: dyeing silk in these deep colors requires a lot of dye -- the garment may bleed slightly during the first wash or transfer some color when worn. Rinse in cold water with a little vinegar before wearing it for the first time, and avoid wearing it over a white blouse or trousers immediately. Bourette silk tends to stretch -- measure the gauge swatch after it has been washed.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1406 yarns · 42 brands · 135 without gauge · 276/1408 gauge rows missing row count.
