I agree with that, but how many times should the yarn be shocked before the majority of the shrink is taken care of? I still lament the gorgeous silk-wool yarn which, once knitted into socks, shrank beyond wearing after only a few washes - and this was after shocking the yarn. I only did it once... Should I shock all of my yarn two, three, four times? -j. To stop mail temporarily mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: set nomail To restore send: set mail
