I guess I'm a chicken! I'm making a crocheted steek on Little Birds even though the pattern says you don't need to make a reinforcement. Shetland Wool is fuzzy and sticky enough to leave it as it is. It will felt enough by itself. But - since I haven't tried it with Shetland wool before - I can't just cut. I'm using Eunny Jang's tutorial.

I haven't steeked before...will need to try it whilst I'm in shetland...I can imagine I'll be nervous too! Can't wait to see this...I absolutely love this design of Ysolda's
I'm going to reinforce my sweater too when I cut it. I know shetland isn't supposed to unravel but it's just too scary!
I'd be too chicken to not reinforce. Sticky wool or not, it seems like a (not doubt totally imaginary) risk.
I'd be a chicken too--that wide neckline! Good luck with the cutting. I can't wait to see the finished sweater!
