Question
aadttsm
So... I keep inheriting yarn. I haven't even gotten the two garbage bags full that my grandma is sending me... haha.
This stuff is from my aunt in Florida. I LOVE the colors, they're totally brite and fun! (considering that my hair was hot pink two days ago.. ;-) ). I have A TON of it. There's 11 skeins of the blue, and 4 each of the pink, black, and teal. 123 yards a piece, called "Saucy Sport", so I'm guessing it's sport weight, and it's 100% mercerized cotton.
I've a) never worked with sport weight before, or 100% cotton, so I'm excited about the opportunity, and b) never made anything really big before.. and now with the post-christmas slow-down, I wouldn't mind doing a slew of matching things or one big item.. I know cotton isn't stretchy, so it's not ideal for hats. I was thinking a blanket or something maybe, but I don't know how heavy the cotton will be...?
Does anyone have any suggestions? any good patterns for this size of yarn, and advice for working with cotton?
