I&#8217;ve been fondling this yarn nonstop &#8211; it&#8217;s soooo soft! I did notice that is exactly my sister&#8217;s favorite color and she has been wanting me to knit her a poncho!  I am so tickled by that idea!  And I think it would be a great distraction when the stockinette stitch gets TOO boring!  Thank you Secret Pal!  I noticed you mailed this from Lake Arrowhead &#8211; I have family down there!  What a beautiful place you live!!  <\/p>\n<p>OK &#8211; back to sick kids, homeschooling and laundry!
