The yarn is a pleasure to work with because it&#8217;s so soft and with such a simple pattern, where you only work into spaces, not stitches, I didn&#8217;t have a problem with its overall fuziness.  It doesn&#8217;t frog very well, of course, but luckily I didn&#8217;t need to do much of that.  The only thing I didn&#8217;t like about this yarn was how often I had to change skeins because each skein is so small.  This open work poncho took seven skeins.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dawnalguard.com\/crafts\/photos\/rosemaryshawl2.jpg\" width=400><br \/>\n<br \/>Here&#8217;s a close-up of the yarn and pattern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a Christmas present for my step-mother, Rosemary.
