Patons Fresco yarn

[Suzee]

Once again, I stopped in the local JoAnn's, and they were clearancing out yarn. I picked up 16 skeins of Paton's Fresco yarn...color is a pale blue called "Wave". Has anyone worked with this stuff? What would be a good pattern for it? It was an incredibly good deal and I just couldn't pass it up. Thanks!

If you have a young girl in your life, I recommend Chelle's halter pattern. I made two with Fresco and they turned out super soft. I had to change the hook to get the gauge, but otherwise it worked up fine.

What a lucky find! I love Patons...but it's never on sale here

I attempted to make a swimsuit for my daughter out of it. I just couldn't get the front right so I gave up for the time being. But, it was a great weight for it! I also think it'd make great bags.

I haven't crocheted with it, but I've knit myself and my DD a few tops. They are great. The yarn twists when you work with it, but leave it, instead of trying to untwist it, like I tried to do the first time.
