A Note on Unique Craftsmanship & Media:
Original photos display the exact hanks available in stock (priced per hank), including Photo 4 illustrating 14 Wraps Per Inch (WPI). Seis Cabos’ tightly twisted 6-ply structure excels in cables, textured stitches, and colorwork. Because Seis Cabos is hand-dyed, alternating skeins every few rows is recommended for seamless color distribution across larger projects.
