I bought this yarn back in the spring when I was looking for some cool cotton to make summer socks - and as you can see I have yet to knit any cool summer socks - but I will - I think something nice and lacy...
This is Bernat's description:

The yarn is very soft and has a slight shimmer - it glides on the needles - which is nice after the stiff Baby Denim...
I swatched on size 2 needles and the shimmer is not so apparent in the stockinette stitch - but still a very nice drapey fabric.
So - if you know of a nice lacey summer sock pattern - send it my way...
