Sugar and Cream



I have always loved Lily's Sugar and Cream yarn. Ever since I was a little girl, long before I learned or had a desire to learn to knit, I loved this yarn. Maybe it's the bright Kool-Aid color combinations, which always remind me of a bright sunny day. Or maybe it's just the soft, soothing texture of the cotton.
Cotton is not the most practical yarn for garments or blankets or other things you usually think of to knit. But, it is perfect for knitting practical things like dish cloths and towels. I guess if you are going to be knitting something as mundane as a dish towel you may as well use a yarn that makes you happy. I just always feel a little guilty using something so pretty to wipe the counter.
