Import Tips
• Label samples clearly with thread count (313) and weight to match 'Sheeting (313)' statistical suffix
• Avoid common pitfall of incorrect yarn number calculation; use official US note formulas post-sizing removal
• For sets with finished goods, classify components separately unless imported as retail set under GRI 3
