I have used it for baby garments, and the patterns really pop out. I love it and use it all the time for kids knits. The colors are fantastic and I dont think it is too scratchy either. Our Spotlight store seems to sell out of it so quickly too, and I am sure half my wardrobe is filled with this yarn now. I hope you find some nice pattern to knit it into too.

I looked at the Lion Brand instructions (the one you did, the magic stripes socks) and I didn't know what it's talking about. I bought this yarn to try on a scarf and hats. Already started on the scarf so will post an update soon. I’m still too new to start sock knitting.

I love lots of the US patterns I've seen but most of them call for worsted weight yarn which isn't that common around here! Rina, I have just the opposite problem.

The tension, 22 st/10cm, is definitely DK weight. It's my favorite weight yarn, but around here (the U.S.), they're much less common than worsted weight.

Tks for the comment on my first pair of socks.

I bot this type of yarns too, for knitted toys only. I think u wont like it or feel comfy to wear it.

Circular needle is much fun than straight needle. I tends to “drop” down my dpn while knitting the socks.

Happy Knitting.
