Is it Noro? Noro can be itchy...you might try (hand)washing it a couple times; I made my husband a scarf from it, and it required several washings before he could stand it.

p.s. It's beautiful!

no, it's patons sws. i'll try washing it and see if that helps. i think i may be overly sensitive because all of the reviews that i read mentioned how soft this is for wool yarn. bummer...

ps- thanks, carlene!

Soooo pretty! You can always just hang it on your wall and admire it from there.
