Phentex worsted for Afghan?

Happy New Year!
I just bought some Phentex worsted(denim color) on sale but have never knitted with it before. Will it work up into a soft afghan? it seems fairly soft. I’m hoping it is softer than Red Heart Super Saver which seemed soft on the skein but not as soft as I like in an afghan.
Anybody have good or bad results with the Phentex?
Also, any suggestions for another color to add a strand with it? I’m thinking softee chunky in a denim ragg but am open to any suggestions!Thanks,
Nancy
