I don't generally use cotton yarns as when they get older, they have a tendency to get brittle/more prone to breakage. I had an older cotton dishcloth yarn break on me twice while in the middle of making a simple dishcloth. So I quit using that type of yarn. Forever.
I want the uv color change ones really bad though. I could do cute summer clothes/accessories and possibly a full sized plushie as I recall the price of the yarn being much more affordable than the wool ones I bought (though those were also discontinued which didn't help). Hopefully it'll be available for a while. If everything goes my way though, I can possibly buy some next month.
And that reminds me, I need to find some fleece and see about lining my hats with it though I'm not sure how to go about sewing the fleece to the looser knit stitches and I suspect I'd have to hand-stitch it so the machine doesn't snag the yarn. A neighbor requested a fleece-lined hat.
