All of those wash instructions symbols on the yarn tag can be confusing, before I got a knitting book, I started a page where I drew the symbol and wrote what it meant underneath it. I think I have most of them now, so I’ll share it.

Wash Symbols

If there’s an X through it, don’t do it! Now that I’ve knitting a few things and felt like I’ve looked at thousands of labels trying to pick out yarn, the pictures are a bit self-explanatory but when just a month ago, I was confused to what they meant and now I have a page to look back on and check just in case I forget.
