• Each color link will be
referenced by its Pantone™
color # (see label)
• Designate each different
shade of the 5 separate yarn
balls as Contrast A, B, C, D and

(or as desired).
• Due to finite amount of yarn
in each shade, pattern gauge
must be matched to ensure
successful results

carry yarn not in use loosely

another.
