My row gauge is off (Alert the media!), so I find myself tugging at my knitting, trying to stretch it into submission. Not quite sure if it&#8217;s working yet, I&#8217;ll keep you updated.<br \/>\nThis is the first time I&#8217;ve knit with All Seasons Cotton. It&#8217;s okay, I guess. It&#8217;s not grabbing me a whole lot. I&#8217;m not a fan of cotton, and it&#8217;s definitely an improvement on cotton.<br \/>\nCan I be sacreligious and say that it really seems much of a muchness as Lion Brand Cotton Ease? I used cotton Ease earlier this year to make a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/001047.html\">zip jacket<\/a> (still zipless!!). The compostion is similar, the weight is similar. Similar is a pretty good word, I&#8217;d say.<br \/>\nThe Rowan does have a nice velvety-ness that the Lion Brand lacked.<br \/>\nI like it, don&#8217;t get me wrong. It hasn&#8217;t grabbed me the way the Kid Classic I used did, that&#8217;s all.<br \/>\nBeing a Saturday, and the right time of year, Em danced at a fete today.<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1058.html\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1058.html','popup','width=588,height=850,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1058-thumb.jpg\" width=\"290\" height=\"420\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1087.html\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1087.html','popup','width=571,height=850,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1087-thumb.jpg\" width=\"282\" height=\"420\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1114.html\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1114.html','popup','width=950,height=713,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.randomknits.net\/archives\/100_1114-thumb.jpg\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/center><br \/>\nNo, that&#8217;s not her hair.
