Starting over
I couldn't stand the Red Heart any longer. I wasn't getting anywhere with the project because I couldn't stand the feel of the yarn. Vilevilevilevile!!!!
I changed to Plymouth Encore. Now it's never going to be my favorite yarn; however I like it for projects like the Christmas stockings and for afghans, children's sweaters, things I know are going to require ease in washing and drying.
It's going much better!
