i am knitting a scarf and the yarn isn't as soft as i would like it to bei read that washing it in cold water and conditioner will helpdoes that work? how do you wash it and how much conditioner do you use?
I would advise you to accidentally put some metamucil or a high fiber drink mix that doesn't have any flavor into whatever is for dinner.
There is a medicine called fibercon in powder form that you cant taste or see and you can add it to any of your meals.FIBERCON is generally well toleratedBloating, gas, and a feeling of fullness may occurIf these effects continue or become bothersome, inform your doctorNotify your doctor if you experience any of the following effects: stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, rectal bleeding, unrelieved constipationIf you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacistYou can find it at WInn-Dixie and Wal-Mart.On the supplement isle.
Hey why don't ya try oat mealIt is really fiberousYou could also use broken wheatJust fry it a little in Ghee then add sugar and waterLet it cook over low flame and add cardamomYou can give that with milk tooIt's really greatIf you want to have a wacky way, I have that one too and my personal favJust chew on synthetic's or your quilti do that a lot when depressed^.~
On acrylic yarns I use fabric softener in the rinse waterI always wash hand made stuff in comfortable water, not cold! If it feels barely warm it is okI use a very cheap hair shampoo to wash most of the stuff I makeIf you are using WOOL yarn, fill the sink with comfortable water, body temp is just fine, a handful of shampoo and let the wool soak 15 minutesSqueeze out the water, and if it wasn't too dirty, Fill the sink with rinse water and soak the wool 15 minutes twiceDo not run water on WOOL, it will feltFinal rinse I put in about a teaspoon of hair conditioner for softening and controlling the staticSqueeze and roll the item in towelsBlock out on towels on plastic tableclothAllow to dryThis may not work with acrylic yarns! And some WOOLs are not the snuggly kind.
