Tell me I don't need...

A pink chenille sweater from Target. (I tried to find a link, but target.com has to be the most useless corporate/shopping website in the world. Target Corp, get a clue!)

Know what I hate about chenille? It always wears unevenly so in like six months there are bare patches at the elbows and the rest of it is still all fuzzy. But that might just be me.

that is a good point.

but... PINK!

Mostly I think it's because it's cold in here today and I'm wearing a shirt instead of a sweater.

I am so with you on the pink, believe me. I went to the biggest Claire's I have ever seen today and bought pink hair accoutrements. But still...chenille. I have to say no to chenille every time.

My problem is that, while I love soft and fuzzy things, the fuzzies seem fated to float up and wedge themselves underneath my contacts. So that means angora is out. Wool is just too scratchy for my skin. Cotton shrinks no matter what I do and I can't afford cashmere. I think I might try the chenille. It's only $15, too.

I'm a cotton or microfiber girl. I love cotton, but I never dry anything that's not 100% manmade. Of course, I have that luxury, whereas not everyone does. Try the chenille. You might have better luck with it than me.

I do have a love for microfiber that is pure and true. And word on the drying thing. Everytime I do laundry, I end up with hangers of damp clothes hanging all over the apartment.
