Also, although the yarn is superwash and can be machine washed, it's important that you still handle your hand knit items with care. If you choose to machine wash the socks or other item you make, it's best to cold water wash on Gentle Cycle, and also to place the knit item in a lingerie bag.<BR/><BR/>So far, I haven't had any trouble with wear and I personally have not used reinforcement thread for my socks, but I know some of my customers do that just as a regular practice for any pure wool knit socks.<BR/><BR/>Hope you check back here and happen to see this!Deb for Fearless Fibershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492841098001823398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28441110.post-71471467973179116112007-06-15T06:11:00.000-07:002007-06-15T06:11:00.000-07:00Deb, could you maybe give some advice about the we...Deb, could you maybe give some advice about the wear of the yarn? I haven't used it yet, but plan to use the superwash sock yarn soon and would you suggest a very firm fabric? I am so delighted that the yarn is so incredibly soft, but also a little worried about wear. Do you use reinforcement thread on your toes and heals of socks?
