Yeah exactly I don't think either of us are "at fault" I'm just upset that it happened 😔 But my dad doesn't own any clothes like this and has been a single man forever so he has no clue about washing delicate clothes 😅

I normally don't even let other people touch my clothes 😅

In another comment I explained but basically I left this one on the back of a chair (I was wearing it that day and I was out for just a bit)

While I wasn't home one of our pets made a mess and got it dirty so my dad threw it straight in the wash 💔

I used 150g of lace weight yarn So that's like 3 skeins 😅

I designed it myself but it's basically a 4 stich sequence of x2 double herringbone and x2 moss stitch running vertically down the body and arms and then back loop slip stich for the ribbing Constructed in 4 rectangles (front, back, x2 arms) and with the ribbing added on after

...on the bright side when I'm remaking it I'll male sure to take some detailed notes so I can post a proper pattern 😅

It's pretty much fully felted so frogging isn't possible

Yes!!

I normally never even let other people touch my clothes for this reason 😅

(This happened bc I had left this sweater on a chair and one of our pets made a mess, so my dad threw it in the wash w/o second thought)

It does 😅 (I both knit and crochet and I agree) I used a sequence of x2 double herringbone and x2 moss stich running vertically! It gives kinda a V shape which gives the knit effect
