That is a world of difference! Would that steaming technique also work with tunisian crochet? Most of the panels that I have made are far too stiff. Also using acrylics.

I also made a scarf out of a tweed acrylic a few years ago and have yet to wear it due to the lack of drape. It does not flow at all and is extremely rigid.
