It will become a rag.

@LTT1 I really liked your previous nickname.

 

It always reminded me of when John Brook in Little Women told Meg he was a teacher who "loves to teach."  Heart

@2blonde

 

I get a great, clear picture of you with your nic! And I think it is hilarious that you put blonde in there...the very fact that you have a sense of humor tells me that you are no dummy! 

 

@Love my grandkids

 

When I first began teaching, my reasons for pursuing the field were elevated.  Even though I was successful (to my way of thinking) the elements of the position drained me physically.  Still,  always the love of the students brought back my sense of humor and delight!

Thank you for having a wonderful definition of what teaching “looks like.”

 

Thank you all for your replies concerning rayon.  I put the turtleneck (it is navy) in the dryer with a cotton tank for only 5 minutes. Not really enough time even for the dryer to heat up. 

 

My goal would be to shrink it .... but only a bit!

You'll always be lovestoteach to me. You were the first poster who showed me how to do stuff on this forum when I first got here and I'll never forget that. Woman Happy

I'm with @2blonde.  It's just odd how someone would read "all that" into a simple nick.  

 

You have always been thoughtful and kind and smart.

 

Best wishes for the degree of success you hope for with your shrinking turtleneck project, @LTT1!

Wrinkled rayon, if it happens to be 100%. Then, ruined wrinkled rayon.

@Sweet_Serenity

 

It is from Amazon...95%rayon5%spandex

 

i put it in the dryer yesterday...as I posted earlier, it was in the dryer about 6 minutes not enough time for dryer to get warm.

This treatment did not hurt the turtleneck, hung it over a “tube” hanger.  Today it is not even dry yet!

 

How can this be?

@LTT1

 

I'm unable to answer your question...my item from Amazon isn't rayon.
