I have just been able to answer a cry for help. A buyer of one of my scarves from The Artisan Store Fremantle left it behind at a friend's house in England when visiting recently. Thinking she was doing a good turn the friend washed the scarf, and surprise, surprise, it shrunk! Gentle hand wash only, no machine washing.
Luckily I had some of the same 2-ply yarn left so have hand-woven a scarlet coloured Tailored Strands Australian alpaca scarf in the same yarn, pattern and size as the original. I now have to mail it off to the friend in Queensland. I have just made two people happy!
