Rowan Colourscape Chunky by Kaffe Fassett

Leave it to Kaffe Fassett to create stunning color combinations!  Rowan Colourscapes Chunky takes the combinations and puts them in one yarn.

    Comments about Rowan Colourscape Chunky by Kaffe Fassett:

    I used this yarn to make a large afghan. The color variegation is truly beautiful - long stretches of color that worked well for the large color blocks in the afghan. Not too itchy for 100% lambswool, so that's nice. My only big beef is that the consistency of yarn weight was not good. I know to expect some variance, but this yarn is listed as "5" bulky weight, but varies all the way from sport to super chunky.

        I used this for a multi texture scarfette. The colorway was beautiful. The only drawback to this yarn is the price, which keeps me from using it on bigger projects.

          I am making an Afghan with this yarn. This was the last colour I needed to finish my project. I would also make a bulky sweater with the yarn, as it is nice to work with. The colours are so vibrant and blend so beautifully with each other. I will be buying more for future projects. Thanks!

            Comments about Rowan Colourscape Chunky by Kaffe Fassett:

            Love the look and the effect you get with this yarn. I do have concerns, however, that it literally pulls apart. Do not tug on this yarn or you will have two skeins. Makes me nervous about its durability.
