What color did you buy?

What does 'lot of loft' mean? I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by it knits 'down'.

Is it not a good yarn to just knit by itself? I'd hate to have to buy more yarn after I spent so much on just one skein. I mean I love my mom, but I have to draw the line somewhere...
