Hi Becky,

 

I have not used it yet, but it sounds interesting. How high on the soft
scale is it.

Here is the info about the yarn for anyone who is interested.

 



TexturesR

TexturesR is a worsted-weight, self-striping boucle yarn that creates a
beautiful medley of complementary colors.  Each colorway is inspired by the
color palettes found in nature, such as the forest, ocean, meadows, and
skies. The tightly twisted, consistent nature of the boucle makes the yarn
easy to knit and crochet with, so everyone-even a beginner--will get neat
and professional looking stitches. TexturesR works up beautifully to create
easy care garments, afghans and accessories.
