I am waiting for my wool yarn to arrive so that I can crochet some diaper soakers, but I am wondering if i can waterproof acrylic yarn, can i lanolize it? just curious.
Acrylic yarn, being a petroleum product, is already waterproof, the fibers themselves, anywayAs for lanolizing it, it doesn't have pores for the lanolin to penetrate since it is plastic.
First of all, it may not be legal in your jurisdictionSecond, think thousands and thousandsYou have question of insulation, ventilation, heating, cooking, electrical, plumbingYou must have emergency exit, that's not crawling through some access door, but a full fledge door and framingAll this will require permits when you start dealing with structure, electrical, plumbingAnd permits require inspectionsSo unless your folks are willing to fork over.minimum $40,000 for your little hissy fit, suck it up and work on something they can handleYou room may need redecoratingYou say you have the original bed.heck mine is 50 years oldGranted it's had different mattresses.maybe that's what your needMaybe your furniture can be updatedIf old and beaten up, it can be paintedMaybe you need new paint, carpeting, window coveringsWhat makes you think you are entitled to your own man cave? That comes when you are out on your own and can afford to do it yourselfRight now you are living in your parent's home, their name is on the deed, not yours Four years and you are off to decorate a dorm roomRight now talk to head decorator, your mother, and see if a bit of negotiated decorating can occurYou don't get to touch structure.
