The blouce yarn is DK wt. 5.5 sts =1" on # 5 or 6 needles.
It is 100% pima cotton 128 yds/50 g, machine wash, tumble dry low. It resembles a very short knap chinnele yarn, and is as soft as whipped cream. You can see it in the picts I linked to in the above post. Let me know if you want it. Very Happy

It's lovey yarn but I can no longer work in cotton. It does not stretch at all and causes my wrists too much grief.
