I started making another virus throw using my grandmothers old yarn but, I think the rest of it may need to be given back to my mom or stored/given away. It’s rather stiff and brittle to the point that the fibers are separating from each other. I’m concerned it will totally lose shape in the wash (even in a wash bag!) like my sweater attempt. So I think this will be my last vintage yarn project.
Speaking of, I tried making a granny square sweater for my mom, but I unwisely chose to use vintage yarn which, after being soaked in cold water and hand washed, stretched out dreadfully and in some cases, broke. So that was a complete waste of time.
