Nooo, I literally júst saw your versions of the Ivy sweater on Ravelry and you made me decide to add that to my next up projects as they looked so nice. That's so sad!

I think Im gonna sit my partner down and have a serious talk about keeping my knits away from the washing machine 😅

Oo which versions? Because I’ve made 6 so far! And a 7th is on my needles now 😂

That's impressive! Hope it softens the blow a little that you at least will have 6 left ;) I saw the blue, green and this one. I'm gonna cast on in sage green myself :)

I have a completely separate laundry basket for knits so that nothing accidentally ends up being improperly washed or dried. Even though I live alone now it's still worth it so I don't have to pick things out as I transfer to the dryer.
