I love the combination of colors in the Aran Fleck! I have used it for knitting hats, mittens and am currently knitting a poncho (as requested by one of my older granddaughters). The Fleck coloring looks good by itself and when mixed with other colors as well. I have 12 grandchildren that keep me busy, especially at this time of year! I enjoy making them something with my own hands----one year I crocheted/knitted 20 large afghans for family Christmas gifts.
