Louet Euroflax: high maintenance.

I have been tearing my hair out over this stuff.


I bought two skeins of Wuroflax wetspun fine yarn in a beautiful shade of brown, and it defies me at every turn.

apparently it biases when knitted in stockinette, so my notion of a simple draping design is out. apparently it's best for lace.

I suck at lace.

it's also stiff as twine and it doesn't matter how tiny my needles are, the stitches come out huge.

well the good ladies at ravelry say that it should be prewashed.

I've already wound it into balls.

Adventures in Bargain Yarn - The Sean Sheep Sweater

I think I'm going to frog it and start over.

But I stare at it, all those stitches, and I just kind of muppet flail at undoing so much work. but at the same time, I've made a number of mistakes, there are things about it I want to change, and changing them means that I have to start over from the beginning.

And I'm going to. it may be bargain yarn, but it shouldn't be *wasted* yarn.

Please hold this thread as I walk away...
