Okay I'm freaking out about these threads.
I purchased Cirque de Cercles by Ink Circles and decided to use Trick or Treat WDW thread. The thread is orange, yellow, brown and black.
Anyway, I've never used these threads before and I didn't realize they weren't colorfast until they arrived. So I've spent the day investigating what I should do with them so I don't ruin my picture. On the WDW website it says not to wash the threads at all because they might fade
.
I ALWAYS wash by finished product since I travel to and from work with my current WIP and they aren't always kept clean because of it.
I just don't know what to do, I just spent $18 on threads that I'm now afraid to use for fear of ruining a project. Should I rinse the threads anyway, should I wear gloves while working on the pattern etc.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
