Using your new Cherry Cat Yarn Cutter is a breeze. Just hold the cutter firmly and place the yarn against the blade. Then, give it a gentle squeeze to cut through the yarn. When you're done using it, keep it in a safe place away from children and pets. To maintain it, wipe the blade with a dry cloth after each use to keep it clean and sharp. Don't use it on very thick or tough materials as it's designed for regular yarn. With proper use and care, your Cat Yarn Cutter will last you a long time.
