How to get a crocheted-blanket to be soft?

I want to crochet a blanket, but I'm afraid that the yarn will be itchyI know that I can buy expensive soft yarn but thats too expensive lolSo Do u guys think if I was to put the finished blanket in the washing machine with a lot of fabric softener it would make it softer? help plz :)

Answer:

I have never heard of using the techniques the previous poster suggestedWhen I have restored pans, I used the techniques listed by the blog linked belowBasically, you remove the old seasoning with oven cleanerThis makes is SO much easierThen you soak the pan in a 50/50 vinegar and water mixtureAfter the soak, you scrub with steel wool just to take off the rustIn the blog, he uses olive oil, but I do not like using olive oilTried it with a smaller pan and it caused my food to taste funny, granted I could have messed up the process, but it was weirdI typically season with shorteningOther than that, if you follow this guy, you can't go wrong.
If you put wool in the washing machine its likely to felt - dont use wool you can use acrylic yarn which is more easily machine washed you can even buy really soft fleece yarn - I think its called fleecie.
