UPCOMING THEMES
TBA!
Knit with TruBoo so light and airy for summer. (Bamboo is squirrelly and the ends are not as neatly woven in as when they started)
*edit to fix words... stupid autocorrect and swipe to text ganging up on me
Gorgeous, and I love the colours. I know what you mean about weaving in bamboo, annoying.
Lovely work! I know "beach" is just the title and not the actually legally mandated purpose but I have to say these colours are just yelling "beach day!" at me ๐
I'm guessing it's just because bamboo is kinda slippery so they can work their way back out over time. I had that issue with some mercerised cotton once.
Thank you!
The bamboo yarn is so slick that the ends work their way free. I wove all the ends in and snipped them close to the work like I do for everything else (when I actually do ๐ซ ). Most ends are sticking out by about half an inch after a few weeks of wear.
Ah OK, I understand now. Thank you for explaining :)
