The Cotton Won't Cooperate

My latest knitting project has been on the needles about a month now.  I found this lovely

lilac shade of yarn, and dubbed this piece the "Highland Park" tank, in honor of the

park where Rochester's Lilac Festival takes place each year !

And while I usually work with wool, I thought I'd take the chance to work on a summer

project in a different material & bought this ultra pima cotton yarn . . . it's hard

to tell from the picture, but the yarn has a really pretty sheen to it !

However, this cotton & I just don't seem to be getting along !  Pretty as it is,

this yarn shows every little glitch, mistake, and inconsistency !  I'm usually a 

pretty even, consistent knitter . . . but it feels like this yarn shows if you 

even breathe on it wrong !!!  Ugh !

Hopefully, once it's done, a trip through the washing machine & dryer 

will cure all ills !!  Fingers crossed !  After that, I think I'll be back to wool !
