Quick poll: acrylic or cotton so far?

Marilyn BolanderInstructorMay 21, 3:04 AM

For your practice swatches, are you using acrylic or cotton? No wrong answer. I like acrylic for practicing because it's forgiving and cheap, but some of you prefer the feel of cotton in your hands already. Curious what everybody grabbed off the shelf.

Cotton, no question...I like feeling exactly where my tension's off. 👍 🌞

Toni, that's exactly why I mentioned it! Cotton doesn't hide a thing, every loose stitch shows up and tells on you. Acrylic will let you cheat a little and not notice till row twelve. Since this week's whole point is finding mistakes without falling apart over them, you're already ahead of the game grabbing cotton.
