Shrinking threads

Shrink threads and effect threads and water soluble threads

if you are now looking for effect

you've come to the right place

shrink threads use them sparingly

the less shrink you use the more effect you will have

after all, applying shrinkage in blocks gives more effect than shrinking everywhere

you can achieve pattern formation by shrinking here and there and especially by not shrinking much

the crimp will contract your knit, weave, crochet structure where you used the crimp

so there you will have a bobble, an extra amount of fabric and in the other places you won't

this is how you create a visual effect

the felt yarns ditto

now take a normal non-feltable wool for your knitting, crochet or weaving project

and you put feltables here and there in between

once finished you wash the whole with a hard soap to give your felt porces optimal effect

this will cause your felt wool to felt and therefore also contract

because felting ensures that the wool (scales) hook into each other

and therefore sit more closely together and therefore shrink your tissue

the rest does not shrink and so you create again here

astringent substance so that you get relief in your tissue that is there permanently

remains present

I can tell a lot about this

and cattle talk about it but it's a DO IT YOURSELF thing

twice a year I give a very intensive workshop on this theme of shrinkage

1 workshop is only around weaving

the other is only applied to knitwear

you can't believe how easy it is to achieve phenometastic effects

and with little thought and little preparation

usually in books these types of projects are described as EXTREMELY difficult to apply

or usually also as almost unusable due to too much work and too little result

well they are wrong, most of those books are written by madamen from scandinaviche regions

who are, in fact, tapestry weavers and know their way around soft fabrics

and have never been in the industry

because imemr this is very often used in the industry without you realizing it

remember this (applied to weaving) making a tapestry or pot holder is NOT an art

anyone can do that with their eyes closed

but making a soft beautiful extravagant fabric with little effort....; That is something else
