Import Tips
• Document yarn count precisely per US note formulas; fractions disregarded, so test multiple samples
• Include commercial invoice specifying weave (plain only), weight per m², and % cotton to prevent shifts to twill headings
• Avoid common pitfall of misdeclaring weight—measure after desizing for accurate g/m²
