I am knitted something in cotton, and a friend came in ,, she fell in love with my work, and said she is going to knit a short sleeved summery shirt , that she could use in winter as vest over longer shirts. As she is not sensitive to cold as i am , this is good for her . Just as she left i had a call from another friend who asked if i have a Nice pattern for cotton knitting something for herself ,,,,Seems cottons are loved and coming more and more into fashin and use , shops have this WONDERFUL cottons [ machine washable] in all colors ,,, mirjam


personally, i love cotton---i rarely wear wool anymore (though that will likely change with my new found love of knitting!!).

I love cotton to--to wear. And I have knit with it. But overall, I find it to be unforgiving and rough under my hands. I enjoy the give- and-take of wool and guess I'm learning to fall in love with it after a lifetime of acrylics. Cotton next. Wool first! LOL.

I love cotton. I live in South Carolina and even our winters are humid. Cotton is a good, all-round fiber down here. :-)
