With the holidays
happening in just a
couple weeks everyone
is giving and receiving
gifts. I thought this is
the perfect opportunity
to share a practice I use
when I give someone a
hand knit gift. A lot of
non-knitters are hesitant
to wash things that have
been hand knit for fear
of ruining them
Hand washing in par ticular
At the other end of the
spectrum, the garment
has already been
washed and accidentally
felted and shrunk down
to fit a doll.
