That's what the yarn is called anyway. I got it last year and thought I better use it up. It doesn't show in the picture but it has a sparkle yarn going through it. Also a lovely picture of kitties scratching post that she doesn't use.
Beautiful afghan, Nancy Jo! I have one of those scratching posts for my kitty, right at the back corner of the loveseat. I don't like it for décor either. She has damaged the other corner of the loveseat and both ends of the couch . . . grrrrr! CJ
