Quality comments:
This yarn hurt my hands. It is rough going through the fingers and the inelasticity of cotton in general was wearing. I knit 2 pair of socks that have worn well (mild use) through several washings.
Other comments:
For socks, I added ~4 sts to a general wool pattern to make up for the inelasticity. The ribbing looks fine, although the socks are more of the slouch variety.
