Fun with Oatmeal

I have always loved this oatmeal-colored yarn ever since I discovered it under the Red Heart label a few years ago.  My Jamaican friend Rose calls it tweed; she taught me some great new crochet techniques at the reggae festivals this summer.  Acording to the label it is Buff Fleck, a lighter version is Aran Fleck
I used it to make two Newsboy style caps with Grandma's buttons.  I also loved using it to mellow out one of my bright color combinations in a classic beanie style.
