Can I use this yarn for other projects besides baby items?
Yes, while designed for baby items, it can be used for other projects where a soft, slightly sparkly yarn is desired.
How do I store the yarn?

What do I do if I run out of yarn mid-project?
Purchase another ball of the same dye lot to ensure the colors match. If this is not possible, plan a strategic color change within your pattern.
