Here’s something I just discovered, which should tell you everything you need to know about the Dulaan yarn: on Tuesday, I finished the body up to the armpits, so I put all the stitches on a scrap of waste yarn, and pulled out the needles. Since then, I have tossed the body around, pulled it into shape to measure it, folded it in thirds to cram it into my case – and generally subjected it to all the sort of unthinking abuse we pile on a chunk of knitting that needs to be set aside for a bit, but still carried around.

Just now – two full days later – I go back to pick up those stitches. As I’m slipping the needle through and pulling out the waste yarn, I discover that, while threading up the stitches, I missed one. Totally didn’t thread the waste yarn through it.

All the handling it’s been through in the last two days, and you know what? That loose stitch did not budge at all. It was standing there all perky next to its neighbors, exactly where it was when the needle slipped out.

This yarn cracks me up!
