Is there a simple way to do this that doesn't require me to re-comb the fiber? __________________ recent FOs: Shedir cap, Bricks of Atlantis, Pirates Hat, Citrine Socklets, Teddy bears, 1 entrelac sock OTN: scraps blanket, Shedir for Teenie, Ice Serpent Hat NIL: Qiviuk tam re-visited; weatherproof gloves; sweaters My knitting blog: http://emilai333.wordpress.com/
