Other comments:
This is a *very* springy acrylic -- has more resiliency than the other acrylics I've used. Definite shine. Feel is not as harsh as Red Heart. This yarn is now available from Paton's, according to their web site. I've used this for baby sweaters; it's held up very well. I will use the remaining stash, but I will probably switch to a wool/acrylic blend in the future for this sort of knitting.
