It's going to pill like all the other malabrigo I've ever worked with and I've noticed it a little on the rows I've had to tink or rip back.<br /><br />2. It's stronger than it looks and can take quite a beating when it comes to knitting tight stitches.<br /><br />3. As far as felting goes, I'm going to say that it would felt quickly, which means it has to be treated very gently. Of course, for me, using Malabrigo in general means that I'll be treating the finished object carefully. If you don't mind the pilling (lint shaver takes care of that pretty easy), it's super soft, knits up beautifully, and the colors are incredible. Will require more special care, but to me, it's worth it.Knitting Magic Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00066687286399870010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23233587.post-61114299405531248612010-03-10T22:34:39.317-05:002010-03-10T22:34:39.317-05:00oh please tell me what you think of the malabrigo ...oh please tell me what you think of the malabrigo lace. there's a lady telling me it's awful and it felts up quickly, etc. and i just don't want to believe it. please tell me otherwise.Yarnwitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03900626316556347100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23233587.post-72421872487986904692010-03-09T09:14:20.740-05:002010-03-09T09:14:20.740-05:00the shawl is looking gorgeousthe shawl is looking gorgeousJulia Daviesnoreply@blogger.com
