Skein speak.

So, after I started crocheting (about 4ish months ago) a co-worker had a skein of Red Heart he gave to me to make whatever I wanted with. I wanted to make something for him, so I asked him what he wanted. He said potholders. Easy enough, right?

No.

Why? Because the yarn doesn't want to be potholders. Don't ask me how I know, I just do. So, a project that would normally take an hour or so as taken me over a month and I still have to make one more.

(Does the yarn ever speak to you? Do you get a feeling about what it would look amazing as? Or am I just ready for the white jacket?)
