Wa Asobi Series (ITORICOT Concept Yarn)

The "Wa Asobi" series is made from wool, cotton, mohair, and other materials that are left over from factories. This series is mainly made up of ITORICOT originals.

We hope that the time you spend touching the yarn and knitting will be a time of gentle relaxation.

The key to knitting with industrial yarns!

The second stitch is sweeter! ...Knit loose and fluffy!

Industrial yarns are waxed to make them easier to knit with machines, and they are designed to be washed at the end of the process, so they may have oil or solvents on them.
By washing at the appropriate temperature, dirt is removed and the fibers become fluffy, so the key is to knit a bit loosely (softly).

Be sure to knit a swatch for testing!

Since wool and similar fibers tend to shrink, it's important to knit a swatch and calculate the shrinkage rate.
For items with longer fibers, gently pressing them while washing will enhance the texture.

How to wash industrial yarns at home

Iron

First, the finishing iron and steam are applied to the stitch.

Pre-washing

Soak in hot water (no detergent) for about 15 minutes at 40°C or less

Washing

(detergent wash, neutral detergent Emaar, etc.) Wash as desired, or if you want to fluff out the yarn, wash it with a leftover cloth or other material and rub it to make it fluffier.

Rinsing

Change the hot water and rinse until the water is clean.

Finishing touches

Use fabric softener if desired. Use of fabric softener will further improve the texture.

Dehydration

If using a washing machine, place in a net for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Light towel drying is also acceptable.

Dryness

We recommend drying flat in the shade.

Steam iron

Organize shapes and stitch nicely.
