I ordered the soft pink because the stores in my area didn't have that color. I ordered it for a specific project, a ballet tutu for an 18" doll. It makes a beautiful full skirt for a tutu. I made one in sparkly white for a charity auction and the bidding was hot. All the moms and dads were under pressure from their daughters to get it.  I prefer to use Lion Brand yarns because I can count on the quality for the things I make and sell.
