It's not easy being green.
Remember my fugly green sweater start? 
Well I did determine that I didn't want to spend $35 and countless hours on something that I could only wear if I took up deer hunting 
(something that isn't likely at this stage of my life). So I returned all the unused skeins and frogged (yes, Kermit, FROGGED) the rest. This is what happens when I frog. 
Not a pretty sight. Imagine if I had a cat.

Working from an article out of the only knitting magazine I own - The December issue of Knit 'N Style I decided to give the yarn one last try. They suggested knitting variegated yarns with 2 threads from either separate skeins or both ends of the same skein. It eliminates the pooling and odd stripes you can get with a single strand. Well, yes, it did. 
And I guess this some improvement. I guess. But I still think it would be best served 
in a deer blind. I never really expected to actually use this, but it was an interesting experiment and a result that I will keep in mind for other projects. As, I have stated before, I have an odd affinity to variegated yarns so this could come in really handy. Really handy.

Anyway, after frogging (yes, Kermit, FROGGING) this ball of yarn was beyond hope and help.
So, this is where it is today.
RIP.
RIP.
Rip it, rip it! Like sewing, some things are just destined to be wadders. cnsider it a learning experience and move forward to a a yarn that you love.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness you didn't decide to take up hunting. I think a gun in the hands of a woman preparing to spend Thanksgiving with the inlaws could be a problem.. K
ReplyDeleteI am throwing away stuff like you wouldn't believe the past couple of days. Not yarn, but "stuff" nonetheless that I don't use, don't want, don't have room for, etc.....
