<description><![CDATA[Sonata is GREAT for kids' wear... kids cannot destroy this yarn... it survives washing, drying, being ground into the gravel under a car tire because SOMEBODY left her Sonata top in the driveway, it survives getting caught in the bicycle chain, being used for a tug-of-war game, getting incessantly poked, plucked, pulled and tied around and into all kinds of things.  I have knit lace things out of Sonata that are still being worn 5 or 6 years later and still look fantastic.  If you knit lace (or anything with loose stitches) this yarn will stay drapey for years and years.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I have made easily seven sweaters with Sonata. It works up well and wears well. Though I have machine dried with some shrinkage, I've also found that when I wash in Woolite and lay flat, the first wash does shrink.  I've gotten into the habit of allowing about 1/2 in. shrinkage in the sleeves and body. This works fine for me. I love the yarn. As to comparable to others, Saucy is higher and not any better in shrinking. Stretching as never been a problem]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Sonata is great!!! the cable construction makes it soft without being splitty.  Wears like iron - I think it would be perfect for childrens sweaters.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I have only knit one sweater with Sonata.  I loved knitting with it.  It is smooth and soft and does not split when working with it.  However, I have not washed the sweater yet and don't know how much it will grow.  I plan to wash it gently and lay it out to dry and see how that works.  So far in wearing it the sweater has not pilled yet.  I hope this helps.<br/>PatQOC]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I would appreciate product reviews from those who have used elann Sonata.  In particular I am interested in knowing how this cotton yarn compares with other 100% cotton yarn.  How smooth is it to the touch?  Is it easy to knit with?  Would it be appropriate for children's sweaters?  Thanks!]]></description>
