[crochet] Superwash Yarn

Some people love the feel of a “wooly-wool” and others can despise them (and the way they smell when wet). But, there’s a lot more to consider than just this, so read on to get a lot of info on yarn and its care.

Plant-based Fibers

Cotton, Linen, Hemp, Bamboo and others fall into the Plant-based yarns category.

While I do tend to advise people to follow the laundering instructions on the ball band, I’ve found that many plant-based yarns tell you to either not use a dryer or to dry clean only, but they do just fine when laundered.
