NOTE: The colors are more muted then the standard Pakucho yarns, especially the greens. This allows you to keep the color as is or deepen it with hot and/or machine drying. You have the choice! Please keep in mind that if you wash this yarn in hot water or dry it in the machine their is an average shrinkage of 10%-15% in length.
