I haven't started using this yarn yet, but it's in line for a cowl-making project to donate to a local hospital's nursing staff in their IV Infusion Center, where my husband receives anti-rejection medications for his kidney transplant - nothing but the best yarns will work for these hard-working, caring nurses who help keep so many patients alive with critical medications! And, Embry fibers are just superb - who needs any other yarns in life but ones that are locally-sourced, beautifully-spun, and with such amazing hand-dyed colorways!
