You'll know it when you see it, mauimagic. I picked up the Ella Rae yarn first, but then touched the appropriately named Debbie Bliss yarn, and it just sang "washcloth" to my fingers.

You are all so lucky to have shops to choose from!! I considered myself lucky that Walmart has expanded its color selection!!
Did have a great ride to the other side to shop for the yarn - road is along the water's edge for most of the way - very peaceful!!Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

REally glad for this swap - find the time spent crocheting very relaxing and a nice break from all the house projects I'm doing!! Mahalo. Working on my first dishcloth now!!
