Here's an interesting question for ya. I've never considered putting one of my turnings through the washing machine before...
LOML is big into knitting. In fact, she's a diva at it. She knits some of the best sweaters I've ever seen.
A few days ago she asked me about turning some hand-made buttons for her. I thought it a great idea. Then I got to wondering about how well they would hold up in a washing machine.
Whaddayathink? Would any particular finish be best or let them go au naturale? I'd almost hate to use a poly on them, and most finishes I can think of probably wouldn't hold up in a wash cycle. I'd be in the dog house if I ruined one of her sweaters. They take her mucho hours to make!
