Caring for Your Yarn

You’ll notice that Lion Brand Yarn labels now feature universal care symbols. Rather than using long, complicated instructions for yarn care, we’ve opted for a more streamlined approach. Here are some of the symbols you will find on our labels and how to “read” them. Note:  To find the care instructions for any yarn, click here and select the yarn name. hand wash cool This symbol is used for yarns that need gentle washing. You should wash your garments in cool water (no higher than 86 degrees F / 30 degrees C noted in the symbol). In most cases these pieces should be dried flat, but look for a machine dry/do not machine dry to accompany this symbol. hand wash This symbol is used for yarns that need gentle washing but that won't be damaged if warmer water is used.
