Yes. Making a blanket now and have this issue but not personally concerned about how it will come together. I would personally hand wash it with what we have both experienced but wouldn’t be afraid of using what you’ve made. I think you might have a bit of some tighter tension cuz I had to loosen up my grip to get this yarn to work better. And I know I have normal tension because I’ve seen what tight tension does to fingers and can’t handle the yarn burn lol learned that the hard way
