Washing instructions:
To prevent color bleeding, the first wash should be done at 60°C. After that, a washing temperature of 40°C is recommended. If your project includes both strong and light colors, using a color catcher sheet during washing is advised. The sheet will absorb any loose dye molecules, protecting the lighter areas from discoloration.
