Comments: I'm incredibly impressed with how soft this yarn is. DH liked it so much he'd like a pair of his own. I think if I do that, however, I'll order three skeins, because he'd like them a little taller, and I was getting worried about running out of yarn at the end.

For the first time I used the Elizabeth Zimmerman sewn cast off, and I loved it - it was perfect!
