And somehow it felt better in the store than when I started working with it. Gah! It went back. Seriously..just wanted to make a blanket for

Capt A that didn't cost an arm and a leg and was machine washable and soft. And, of course, the right colors.

bernat is the way to go for affordable washable worsted

their saving brand is like butter compared to red heart

that might not say too much considering but it's good stuff. bulky try Yarn Bee's Icelandic Jewel by hobby lobby it goes on sale $1 ball

ewww bummer

didn't find it that harsh. Used it last year to finish of an afghan.

I read on Rav that it depends on the color, lynxie. I wonder if that was the deal.

katkoe...which Bernat worsted? I don't know that I've ever tried it.

used the dark brown.

agrees that the Bernat Super Value is a very soft low-cost acrylic

great to know Will have to try that another time! Lynx, I used the beige color and it wasn't so good. I wonder if the darker colors are

better, because in the store I picked up the dark blue and it felt fairly soft. The beige/taupe color I just threw in the basket. It was the

first one I used, tho, and was not terribly impressed.
