My Trekking socks felt the same way, and now they're my softest, favorite socks.<BR/><BR/>Sorry, I guess that's a little too late type of advice.... <BR/><BR/>You're probably right.... that yarn is still looking for its perfect form - it's out there.<BR/><BR/>"a hank is yarn's lowest form of being" ! - you crack me up!
