It&#8217;s a much deeper pink, called Rose. That&#8217;s the yarn I hope to use for Luann. It&#8217;s 69.6% cotton, 30% wool, and 0.4% lycra.

Not off by 1 or 2, but by 22. I have no idea how that happened, but I&#8217;m about to start again \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a reason for everything.
