My reaction to both hot and cold temperatures has become more noticeable
since I had that pneumonia after Hurricane Katrina. I am very much more
sensitive to both heat and cold.

In addition, however, I find I must swatch each and every yarn I use.
Sometimes the identical yarn, in a different color, will swatch
differently. For instance, I have had the experience of a light color
yarn being much more fluffy than the same item in a navy or black.
Also, different colors often have a diferent feel. One baby yarn I
wanted to buy was very soft in one shade, and quite harsh in another.
Worst of all was the variegated one, which I thought was much too harsh
to put on a baby.

So, the only answer to "What gauge is best?" is...................
.................................................. ....
It depends!
