Hi Crochet Friend!
Today I am going to help those of you who like to shop at garage sales or hate the smell of certain yarns or forget to pick up yarn that was left in a fish and chips headquarters and got super fishy. Ok, that last one might just be me…
Anyway, I have a video tutorial here for How to Wash Yarn Skeins. You can read the directions below and then watch the video for a step by step tutorial. I hope this is helpful!
Don’t forget to Pin this post for later!
Materials Needed:
- One pair of cheap knee high or thigh high pantyhose/nylons (they can be old ones with runs in them)
- Up to 4 skeins of stinky yarn
- Washing Machine and Dryer
- Laundry detergent (I like Tide)
Written Tutorial:
1. Find pantyhose or nylon (knee or thigh high work best)
2. Remove paper labels from yarn.
3. Without unraveling, shove yarn into nylons (up to 4 skeins)
4. Wash in washing machine in cold water on gentle/delicate or hand wash cycle (check yarn label to make sure you have the right temp and cycle)
5. Dry on extra low/delicate or air only dry (again, check yarn label to be sure)
6. Remove yarn from nylon and enjoy!
Simple steps, right? If you’d like a full tutorial, you can check out the video below!
