    • Thanks Lauren,

      It would definitely depend on the sweater you use and make sure to tie in your ends really well. It should be fine machine washing as long as the sweater can be machine washed. I would still hang it to dry.

  4. Can you tell me the brand of your sweater? I tried zooming in and couldn’t see. It looks soft and also that it would fit well on a small frame (like mine.) Thanks so much!

  5. No stabilizer behind the stitching? For me that would make the embroidery that much easier.
