ISAGER PALET is a thicker ‘summer yarn‘ than Bomulin, and it adds an interesting structure when worked together with other yarns. The colours in Palet are a mixture of many colours, but the finished result will not be ‘striped‘, as the colours are added as small dots onto the yarn. The yarn is beautiful used on its own, especially in simple models, but it is also really exciting when worked together with other yarns. The colours work best if used in stripes together with e.g. Bomulin and this shows in the model Palet.

Care Instructions
Wool should be washed by hand unless you have a washing machine that uses lukewarm water (below 28° Celsius) and has a very gentle wool cycle.
To avoid felting, please observe the following:
Use very little soap and use a wool mark approved detergent. Be careful to keep the same temperature during the entire washing and rinsing process (not above 28° Celsius). After washing and rinsing place the garment in a washing bag and spin it lightly in a washing machine. Then place the garment flat on towel and leave to dry.
Woolen garments do not necessarily need washing very often. Airing outside in damp weather will often be sufficient. Yarns from cotton and yarns made from mixed fibres containing flax and bamboo could be washed in warm water, but still we recommend the same washing instructions as for wool.
