Extremely Disappointed!
I bought 6 pieces of this wool, dusky pink. I run out of wool half way through the second sleeve. I ordered one more. I found out at the end of my proyect that is a different shade. Same colour number but a different lot. number. Now I have a jumper with half sleeve in a different shade. Really disappointed! There is no warning to make people aware of the different shades if you have to reorder. Also there no way of knowing the colour and lot. number until you've received the order. It doesn't show on the pictures.
I also wish to add that the yarn itself has been a nightmare to work with as it tangles and twists despite my best efforts to keep it straight.

If only it didn't twist!
I've never had a yarn do this before - the working yarn twists itself into furls so I am forever having to stand up and drop my knitting to unfurl (which it unwillingly does). When you're knitting a blanket it isn't that easy to do either. This is its only detracting factor, the yarn is nice to the touch and lovely to work with, getting clean stitches is very easy and the colour was a pleasant surprise (in the past I've had some shockers where what I received bore no resemblance to what my monitor showed). The blanket will be warm and cosy, I'm using bee stitch and it's a joy to do.

Lovely Yarn!
I picked this yarn out specifically because I had hosted a scarf giveaway for my little growing business, and the winner of my giveaway liked the color of the yarn, so I bought it. This is my first time working with this yarn and I really like it! It's soft, yet holds tension well and it's durable. Even with working it and handling it while knitting the scarf, it shows no signs of shedding or fraying. I definitely want to go back and buy more of this specific type again.

Does not shed or pile - soft and stretchy
Perfect chunky yarn for modern baby knits. Have been using it to knit garter stitch baby jumpers and has been the perfect yarn choice. i used a smaller needle size 6.5mm as needed density.
Have sampled many yarns and they have piled but this doesn’t. Washes well too.

Disappointed
Making sofa covers so a huge project. Unfortunately, the shades vary so dramatically my sofa is now known as 50 shades of grey. Very disappointing as it has been a lot if work.

Great quality wool. Very soft and colourfull
The wool is very soft and has a vibrant and distinctive colour. Great for making blankets as it is quite strong
