They soften a little more after washing a few times.I am not sure I would wear something made from this yarn around my neck, but a shawl to just go over the shoulders would work.Nadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03002661573000050358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-336164865783701836.post-41024014517222351222017-07-28T21:20:03.780+01:002017-07-28T21:20:03.780+01:00I was wondering, .. how is the yarn?

Since they will be part of a blanket, it's not a problem if they are too wild and variegated. At least I hope so!Nadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03002661573000050358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-336164865783701836.post-63803263472579711502016-12-27T14:27:46.530+00:002016-12-27T14:27:46.530+00:00I see what you mean about the red, but it's gr...I see what you mean about the red, but it's great how they all seem to go together -- always something that make me nervous with variegateds.<br /><br />Gorgeous!
