How to Make Red Heart Yarn Soft
Whenever you intend to gift a DIY blanket or attire to your friends or for a newborn, you must choose the best fabric. Sometimes the red heart yarn that we use to make the blanket or quilt makes the user feel uncomfortable. The reason is that the red heart yarns are much rough, and the skin does not suit them and causes rashes with an itchy feeling. For this reason, today, we are suggesting a unique technique for making red heart yarn soft, which will be beneficial.
Procedure
The process we will discuss is very helpful, and for this reason, you will need vinegar. First, you have to prepare a tub or sink in which the whole cloth can be soaked. Then this sink should be made watertight so that the water doesn’t leak out. Then you have to take the fabric and soak it in cold water. This process should be continued for at least twenty minutes.
To remove a stain from clothing, you first need to soak the cloth in water for twenty minutes. Then, you need to take it out and fill the sink or tub with water and vinegar. The amount of vinegar you use depends on the size of the sink or tub. For a sink, you would use one-fourth cup of vinegar. For a tub, you would use a half cup of vinegar. Then, you would soak the cloth in the vinegar and water mixture for fifteen minutes. This will cause a chemical reaction that will soften the fabric.
Next, you have to take the cloth out and again fill the tub with cold water. Now you can use a washing machine for the purpose. Select the most minimum level of washing option like hand wash and then apply shampoo and wash the cloth. Take the fabric out, dry it, and again hand wash using shampoo. After the process is complete, saturate the water using conditioner. Then you have to soak the cloth in the conditioner mixed water for ten minutes.
You have to take the cloth out if water, and then the fabric should be dried for ten minutes out of water. Then you have to fill the tub with ice-cold water and again put the cloth for about an hour in the tub and soak for about an hour. And then, you have to take the fabric out and rinse out all the fabric’s left conditioner.
You can use a hand sprayer to provide more force and help clear all the conditioner. Then, take the cloth and set the lightest wash option on your machine. We prefer that you use the pillowcase setting and then wash the fabric. Next, dry the cloth with dryer sheets. This will soften the red heart yarn of the material.
Conclusion
Lastly, we would hope that the process we have mentioned here to soften the yarn will be beneficial for the beginners. This process will be much efficient, and thus the users will be much comfortable. The skills will be much developed for beginners too. Have a beautiful day!!
