Washing
In this short clip Gary is washing and setting a recently completed
scarf project.  The project used rayon and tencel yarn, both made of
natural cellulose, which dictated the washing method.  This portion
of the process washes away factory chemicals found in most
commercial yarn as well as excess dye.  As important, washing setts
the weave, blossoms the yarn, and results in a softer 'hand' or drape
to the fabric.
