It brings me joy how unique weaving is. And even when everything is planned, a fiber can still surprise you. I have worked with Gist’s Mallo a number of times (because I love the way it turns out) and so I have paid attention to the shrinkage with the way that I wet finish. This one though (that was going to be an oversized shawl) shrunk so much less than anticipated that it made a cozy blanket!
