Just wondering does fray check wash out when you wash the item, and do you have to reapply it after every wash??
thanks in advance, Terry Devine "ejdallas" wrote in message ... hi just use this yarn for the first time and it is very loose and i did use fraze check and it works great flashcat "Lindy" wrote in message ... Wow! What a soft yarn this is. The only thing I don't like about it is how loosely woven it is. I crocheted a halter top for my daughter out of the vanilla color and it looks fabulous but I'm afraid I'm going to ruin the whole thing trying to figure out a way to work the loose ends in. It unravels so easily, as soon as it's cut, and seems slippery and I'm not sure the ends will stay worked in. Has anyone used this yarn and could give me some ideas on how to proceed with this? The only thing I can think of is to use that stuff called Fray Check or something like that, used for sewing, but I've never used it before and not sure how it works. Help! ~Lindy~ |

PLEASE use PLAIN text when posting messages to newsgroups. MY server and reader CAN read them, however MOST cannot. And some of our members have to pay by the minute for their newsgroup 'time', and messages written in HTML can be VERY irritating. Just my two cents. Noreen |

In theory, Fray Check should stay in after washings. I used some on some garments I made on my serger, and the ends are still holding strong.
