I wouldn't worry about reading a blog :) <br /><br />The Araucania is...well, it's very soft but it's a little hard on the hands (cotton-like). There's not a lot of give/stretch to it as you're knitting. It's also very drapey. I think this would make a good shawl (or something else that requires a lot of drape). I'm not sure a BSJ is the right choice for this yarn but it'll be for a small, mostly immobile child...so it'll work :)Renee Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12513788818111774118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829752781266046522.post-38333060197832346082013-08-03T03:18:08.011-07:002013-08-03T03:18:08.011-07:00excuse my tardiness in getting to your wip post.

So, it's more merino than anything :)Renee Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12513788818111774118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829752781266046522.post-2957318042869499062013-07-31T18:39:43.829-07:002013-07-31T18:39:43.829-07:00YOu are brave to make a cash sweater for your todd...YOu are brave to make a cash sweater for your toddler. The red and grey together are strong and bold. What a fun concept for the dishcloth.

It's funny to watch in his baby photos (it was way more obvious when he was younger). I'm sure the sweater will fit him when the time is right. And if it doesn't, he has a cousin that is a year and a half younger than him and she'll fit into it eventually :)Renee Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12513788818111774118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829752781266046522.post-17886004348394368622013-07-31T16:44:45.629-07:002013-07-31T16:44:45.629-07:00It's definitely interesting to work on.

I had actually gotten to the point where you start adding stitches again and I found out my count was wrong, no idea how, so I had frogged it and started over. It's going much better this time...Renee Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12513788818111774118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1829752781266046522.post-69458982469416159532013-07-31T11:59:25.513-07:002013-07-31T11:59:25.513-07:00Love your Greyson Sweater, colours are amazing!
