Information I was able to find on this panda kit is that there are 15 colors of WOOLEN and Acrylic Yarn with 10-count flaxen fabric. If you are missing directions from this kit, you might want to contact Riolis and explain your situation. As for the number of strands, that would be one of my questions to ask them since you are doing the pattern on a 10-count fabric.
Not being a YARN person, I'm curious as to the differences between Wool yarn and Acrylic yarn. Do each type feel different to the touch? Can one see the difference?
