Reusing Jade Saphire yarn
Hi Everyone!

Has any one reused Jade Saphire chashmere yarn?
The scarf I have made with this yarn has become fuzzy.
Blocking it did not help. I'm wonderin if re-knitting it will help.

Thanks!

I haven't used this particular yarn before but cashmere does have a soft halo to it. I don't think that re-knitting it will change that. It shold be dreamy and soft to work with however.

I attempt to use all yarns except yarns like mohair. Mohair sticks to itself and is such a pain I don't bother. Other yarns are usually fine unless they've been in multiple projects. Then they get kind of stretched out and messed up. Your yarn is worth a try for sure.
