mixed yarns


Recommended Posts

Has any one mixed up yarns in a project. I am making a blanket for son. I created the pattern and am using yarn I had here. I ran out of one and went to get a color that was close. I got a yarn and started crocheting. Then illnesses fell here in my house and I did not pay attention. After I got some more yarn did I notice that the other 4 skiens where wool not worsted weight. Will that make a difference in the blanket?

It will when you go to wash it. Acrylic is machine washable. Wool is usually not machine washable, unless it is superwash. Wool tends to felt :eek which will totally mess up the look of your blanket.
