Question
Misticsmom
I wanted to make washclothes ... did ... and used 100% cotton yarn from Sugar and Cream. Made a nice cloth and when it got wet it stretched out so much so that I would be embarrassed to give them as gifts. I made another one using a smaller needle (G), a tight single crochet stitch and it too got looser when wet but not nearly as bad as the first one. I thought cotton yarn would get tighter?? Can anyone lend some thoughts on working with cotton yarn? Is it just the nature of the beast or what? How can I keep my crochet project tight?? Thanks all.
