Heightened sensitivity to texture is so frustrating as a knitter.
I love #StrandedColourwork - the process & the product. I can just about cope with getting cringey using the ‘tacky’/‘sticky’ yarns that work best for it. But the thought of having the inside of stranded work against my skin makes me dry heave. Consequently my stranded work is limited to either stuff that will go over other clothes or stuff for other people (and few people are *that* knit worthy!) #knitting #SensorySensitivity
