Import Tips

Conduct yarn count verification against statistical notes to ensure not reclassified as poplin or broadcloth

Include commercial invoices specifying filament vs. staple fiber to stay in Chapter 54

Watch for over-declaration of width, as notes limit certain types like printcloth to under 168 cm
