This morning I had to find something light to wear to work, so I selected a pink linen shirt. Of course, it needed to be ironed. As I started ironing I noticed oily streaks across the fabric. It's from the Verbena linen water I am using. Now why does that happen? It seems to be dripping out of the steam holes. It left a nice big spot on the back of the shirt. Fortunately (or unfortunately) the office is very cool and I usually wear a cardigan. But, I just don't understand why the oil seeps out. I am using it according to the directions. Could my iron be too hot?
Posted an updated photo of the guernsey sweater in my knitting galleries. Of course, I am still only working on the back side. So much more to go. posted by kristar 10:20 AM
