Anyway the pants appearently came out smaller than they were supposed to, so I'm not allowed to do the laundry any more.<BR/>I get to carry the baskets up and down the stairs and fold the laundry. I can wash the towels we use for rags. I am quite experienced at going to the dry cleaners and picking up and dropping off. So O's little sweaters won't really be any different than K's little sweaters and they should be fine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12868617.post-1140098747405075842006-02-16T07:05:00.000-07:002006-02-16T07:05:00.000-07:00I *am* prepared for that which is why I didn't act...I *am* prepared for that which is why I didn't actually trash the yellow yarn. It looks fine, I just don't love, love, love it like the merino. I'm still going to finish knitting it up though because it would survive a trip or twenty through the washer.The Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05891400997048176082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12868617.post-1140092988819195442006-02-16T05:29:00.000-07:002006-02-16T05:29:00.000-07:00I agree, knit what you want.

But be prepared when someone (like your sister or, as you know, your brother) throws a sweater the kid loves (which is never a given)in the washing machine and you end up with a Ken or Barbie sweater.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12868617.post-1140048540202086342006-02-15T17:09:00.000-07:002006-02-15T17:09:00.000-07:00Knit what you want, Alaska.
