I ordered this yarn to crochet a bag with (triple strand). Didn't finish the bag because it got too stretchy, but that oh-so-soft stretchiness would be great for a garment. I plan on crocheting it single strand to make a summer top.

I made a Candle Flame Shawl (free from knitpicks) using one strand of Gossamer and needles #4. It was pleasure to make, blocked beautifully. But the edges of the shawl felted a little from handling and wearing, which was quite a surprise. Still looks good, and my favorite shawl so far.
