You have a brand new project to stitch! You are so excited to start it! You can't wait to get to the "meat" of that project because it looks so interesting to make! But....you come to a point in that project and your stumped because of a technique.
What I like to do is test the technique out on scrap yarn first. Most of the time, when the instructions give you a technique, say for example, a bobble, they will explain how it is done. I don't like to test it out on my project because I don't want to put it in, take it out, put it in and take it out again. That weakens the yarn, makes it fray and then the yarn looks like it went through war!
According to a psychologist I saw on TV sometime ago, practice does not make perfect----PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT, and it's better to practice on your scrap swatch then on your project. Let's keep that project free of in and out boo-boos!!
HAPPY STITCHING, my friends!
