About Colors Print

The print colors of DROPS Fiesta exhibit natural variations in pattern and shades, resulting from the dyeing technique used. These variations are not defects , but rather a unique characteristic of the yarn.

Important note:
The effect of the color gradient can vary depending on the width of the design (number of stitches). In larger designs, such as sweaters, the color pattern will be different from that seen in socks or small skeins.
