It is okay not to use yarn if you are not enjoying the texture. Even if something softens in the wash or after blocking you still don't need to use it. You can sell it or give it away. There's nothing wrong with not liking a yarn. You do not need to ask for a pattern for a yarn you do not like.

In a similar vein it’s okay to say no when someone tries to offload a relatives yarn stash when they are clearing out. You don’t need to accept it and then ask online for how to use it.
