So, this is Rosie

Rosie had always been a mystery to me, a bit Pamir-like it her lore, infrequent on FSOT, and with only quiet reverent murmurs in WP. I heard about her thickness, strength, and moldabilty. I heard about her beauty and mystique, I learned about her different versions and variables, but I had yet to meet her.

I resisted. I thought, I have Zink, I have dabbled in the 55s, Rosie is redundant in my stash—I was wrong.

I was offered a Rosie 4 by a dear dear friend recently, but couldn't commit to the size, and now thanks to a wonderful, thoughtful, patient mama, who put up with my waffling and indecision, I received Rosenholtz in a trade.

This Rosie, filled to the brim with sweetness from her former home, is thick, cushy, yes moldable, yes strong, and simply wonderful! She is heavier than Zink, yet still easier to manipulate than the 55s and other 50% linens. We spent a gorgeous, albeit overcast, afternoon exploring our new neighborhood with her.
