Import Tips
• Submit yarn count and pick density lab reports to validate printcloth specs under note (e); no multiples/cabled yarns
• Declare as unbleached explicitly—any color flecks may trigger dyed review
• Avoid bulk packaging mislabeled as retail sets, which could shift to different statistical suffixes
