The above shades are fast dyed whenever possible. Nepthol and fiber reactive dyes are used whenever fast dyes are not obtainable.

Since the condition of use, washing, cleaning, hothead pressing etc. vary considerably in the use of yarns, the purchaser should assure themselves by preliminary tests that the dye fastness of the yarn is suitable for the intended use. This is particularly important in the case of contrast stitching, as no yarn is 100% colorfast to washing or crocking under all conditions.
