I love this.
At first I did not like it at all. The yarn is 100% silk and stiff to knit with.
Once it was done, washed & laid flat to dry I was disappointed that it hadn’t softened up at all.
So, I threw it in the dryer with some permanent press items & voila!
It worked, softened up nicely.
I would never call this soft, but it is light weight, nice next to the skin and balls up to next to nothing!
