Do Ya Feel Lucky, Yarn? Well, do Ya??

I went a bit Dirty Harriet with some yarn yesterday. Turns out it didn't feel so lucky.

The yarn was patchy. Supposedly 10ply, but in places would struggle to be a decent 4 ply. I'm certain it was just a rogue ball as I've used this yarn before and not had a problem. However, a price had to be paid and I'm guessing the deposit was my sanity.

I took my small swatch and placed it on the bench. Then I got the rest of the ball and made sure it watched while I cut up my sample. I wanted it to learn a lesson. Similar to the one in that old joke about the naughty parrot who gets put in the freezer for bad behaviour. One look at the chook in there and voila, reformed parrot.

Anyway, back to the yarn (hehe). Mr Fitknit moved to the other side of the bench and asked ever so nicely if I wouldn't mind keeping away from sharp implements. I dumped the sliced swatch in the bin and looked at the remaining ball. I'm sure I saw it wince.

That evening I cast on with the remainder. You will be pleased to hear the yarn is now behaving.
