The yarn is wonderful to knit with. I bought it for a certain project but look forward to finding some thing to make for myself.

I love this yarn! It is so plush and feels so good against the skin that I can't stop knitting with it. I think it's best used for items such as hats and scarves that do not need to withstand heavy abrasion because it is lightly spun and will pill. I personally would not make a sweater with it. But for a hat, cowl, or scarf, it is absolute heaven! I've used it for lots of gifts, and every recipient has commented on how fabulous it feels. I recommend washing by hand (or in a machine without agitation) but then drying by machine on a drying rack to allow the cotton to contract. The yarn does stretch when wet, but if it is dried by machine, it bounces back nicely. It is machine washable, but I feel that agitation makes it look pill-y and old too quickly. With care, it can continue to look new.

I so much wanted to love this yarn. After finishing my sweater knitted with the outer, I hand washed it and it shed like crazy! and when dried, it looks like an old sweater. oh, by the way, it's still shedding. Hate to think what happens when machine washed. I won't be knitting with this yarn again.

LOVE this yarn; cotton/wool blend is hard to beat. Once you knit with this, you'll be hooked...also in the worsted weight 'sweater' as well. Absolutely GREAT yarn - worth the price.

Very soft and I love the color choices. Very cozy and warn. My only complaint is how short the yardage is. Because of how bulky and quick it knits up you are through it in no time.

I love this yarn, it was my first big sweater project yarn(last winter). I couldn't have picked a better yarn! Soft, squishy, quick to knit and the colors are great!

Between the wonderfully touchable texture and the easy, large gauge, I was a goner for Outer. I made myself a long "skinny" scarf for spring, in a simple seed-stitch, and it's been absolutely perfect. For starters, it knits up very, very quickly, so it's great for those instant-gratification projects. As for the texture, the blend of wool and organic cotton is GLORIOUS. The wool keeps my neck warm on the cooler days, but the cotton allows enough breathing room that I'm not sweating on the warmer days. In addition, the colors are very accurately represented on the site, and they're perfect for showing off a nice stitch pattern - or not! Either way, you'll be basking in a lot of compliments.

I knit a sweater and a scarf with this yarn, and they were both a hit! The texture is fabulous, and my brother couldn't believe that this was wool. Not scratchy!
