i want to bake about 6 drum sticks, gonna wrap it in some aluminum foldIs it good to flip the chicken once in a while or leave it in there until its done?
If you substitute yarn of a different weight, you'll definitely need to knit a small swatch so you can check the gaugeAfter you've checked the gauge, you'll know how to adapt the pattern for the smaller yarnAs far as mixing cotton and acrylic yarns, I wouldn'tThe cotton is far more likely to shrink than the acrylicIf you're determined to mix the two, wash and dry the cotton yarn first so it has done most of its shrinking before you use it.
i substitute yarn all the time, except its of the same weightWhat i do if i dont have a certain weight yarn is that i combind what weights of yarn i have2 strands fingering one strand sport2 strands sport one strand worsted2 strands worsted one strand bulky 2 strands bulky one strand of super bulkyyeah using a smaller weight yarn will make the project smaller depending on what your gauge is and how many stitches are cast onYeah you can do that, it sounds like itll add interesting texture to the pieceas long as the cotton and acrylic are the same size.
First of all, you're taking up a wonderful hobbySecond, double knit doubled will be thicker than aran would beYou can buy aran weight substitutes easilyGo to a wool shop and look through the yarns, the ball band will have the recommendation for needle size printed on the side.
No need to flip OR cover with foilLeave the foil off or leave it open and the chicken will get crispy! Otherwise, you can just steam it in a pot.
