Today I have finished my Rowan Pure Wool Worsted Afghan by Martin Storey.

I have done some testing before I took the final pictures. A such big project like an afghan could not be washed by hand it must be ready to be washed in a washing machine. And it has to be possible to put it into a dryer, otherwise it would take ages to be dry.

So I washed my afghan in my washing machine, using a gentle wool program and then I threw it into my dryer until it was  dry!

And it keep shape and have not lost its beauty!

Heute habe ich meine Rowan Pure Wool Worsted Afghan by Martin Storey fertiggestellt.

Und ich habe ihn einem Test unterworfen, bevor ich die endgültigen Bilder machte. Ein so großes Projekt kann nicht mit der Hand gewaschen werden, es muss für die Waschmaschine geeignet sein. Und es muss möglich sein es im Trockner zu trocken, ansonsten dauert es ewig, bis es trocken ist.

Also habe ich meinen Afghan in meiner Waschmaschine im Wollprogramm gewaschen und ihn anschließen in den Trockner geworfen, bis er vollständig trocken war.

Und er behielt seine Form und seine Schönheit!
