I just purchased 2 cardigans and wanted to ask: Should liquid knit be folded, or can it be hung on a hanger? This is very stretchy fabric and Im afraid it may stretch permanently out of shape. (But hanging would be more convenient for me.) Any help appreciated!

It can be hung.  It's not the same as a sweater knit which stretches.

Thanks!

I have a few pullover sweaters. I use the hangar with the wood bar at the bottom. I fold the sweaters in half - and fold it over the bar and hang it up in my closet. This way the sides of the hangars won't poke into the material.

I hang my liquid knit items on Huggable Hangers.

In all of the years that I have purchased Liquid Knits, I have never had a problem with hanging them up. They last for years.

I've never had a problem with liquid knit on a hanger.  I also put it in a drawer sometimes and it doesn't get very wrinkled.  I got two of her liquid knit tunics years ago when they were the TSV with that AWFUL scarf that was more like a table runner.  They still look as good as the day they arrived.  They never lose their color, fray at the ends, shrink, or anything else the way cotton and even cotton blends do.  I like cotton in the summer because it's cool, but for the rest of the year I'll take synthetics any day.

Thanks ladies for all your comments. I feel better now about hanging these in my closet.

I have tons of liquid knit from Susan Graver.  Just throw in the washer and dryer, no special care needed.  Your choice, either hang or fold in drawer,  doesn't change shape, fade, get wrinkled.  Great easy care fabric.  No worries.
