Am so pleased with how this is turning out!
I was considering starting over with a different fiber for color A, it is acrylic and stiff. But I followed Zanete’s advice and steamed a section of it. The yarn relaxed and is much more flexible (it’s not the same as in my test swatch.)
The photo shows the steamed section on the right. On the left the white is so stiff and blocky, but now I know it will do well, especially going into clue 2 where it’s dominant. Happy!! 🤩😂
