Let me tell you about the yarn I chose to use for my design.
 Baby Summer - Light Orchid | |
| Baby Summer by Ice Yarns Fiber Content : 60% Cotton, 40% Acrylic Needle Size : 3 mm. / US 3 Weight : 50 gr. / 1.76 oz. per ball Length : 160 m. / 174 yds. per ball Yarn Thickness : 2 Fine: Sport, Baby Gauge : 24 stitches and 28 rows on 10 cm x 10 cm (4' x 4') Baby Summer yarn is FANTASTIC!! It has the smooth, non-fuzzy look of cotton, but it also has an amazing sheen & drape that it is perfect for summer garments. The yarn glides over the hook with fluid ease that makes it wonderful to work with. The colors are also fantastic - 26 colors ranging from lights to brights! Also, because the yarn is an acrylic blended with cotton, it make the yarn less dense than 100% cotton yarns, so it has a lighter feel to the overall crochet item!! |  Top to Bottom: Fuchsia, Light Salmon, Emerald Green, Light Orchid. |
Left to Right: Light Orchid, Fuchsia, Emerald Green, Light Salmon.
