An H hook makes it too loose. The Simply Soft is worsted but a bit lighter than, say, Red Heart - so it works well with a small(ish) hook.

I love that sweater you linked to-CSS does havea nice drape-in fact, I plan to an Amy O'Neill Houck modular vest using CSS (same colorway)because of the drapability of it and cost effectiveness. Her original pattern called for Blue Sky Alpaca, but #1 alpaca makes me itchy and #2 it may be too warm- Iam with Julie-sock yarn for sure-however you could pick up lots of TLC Cotton Plus and make something really nice for yourself too-or dolike me, make a vest type top using a good quality yarn…decisions.

Depending on how careful you are, that could be three pair of socks right there! ;o) And happy birthday again. :o) The sweater looks to me as if it's crocheted ribbing, yes? If so, using a G hook with CSS is certainly going to give you nice drape. I always felt CSS stitched up more like a DK weight yarn anyway, certainly closer than a true WW yarn. I really like it too!
