Keep the Fantoosh, wrapped in tissue paper with a sachet of fragrant herbs (herbalist friend of mine PROVED to me that a strong herbal scent is a better moth-proofer than the crystals/balls/whatever, and much better than cedar, as well). There will come a day when the Fantoosh is exactly the perfect thing you'll want to wear, and you'll kick yourself if you've given it away. Mary Lou has the right idea on who it should go to, so put it in your will or whatever other means you like, but keep it until...

It takes a little longer to dry, but not enough to make a difference. Mine don't much care about sleeping on a sheet, but what cat doesn't want to take a nap in the middle of a new piece of knitting?Ellennoreply@blogger.com
