Valley Yarns
Valley Yarns Northampton Bulky
Northampton became a fantastic staple so quickly that we knew we had to add a bulky version. It's the same soft wool as Northampton, but in a bulky 4-ply that will fly off your needles.

Everyball had a felt join :(

I love the feel of this yarn and the price can't be beat. But (and there is always a but) I cannot recommend or purchase this yarn again. Everyone of my balls had a felt join that was annoying and hard to take out. For a yarn with only 109 yard there should be no joins not one in every ball. Sadly, in my book this make the quality of this yarn well below average. And with such a great feel and price this is really sad. And it will keep me from trying Valley Yarns in the future.
The final product is awesome.

I crocheted a winter hat pattern from crochet magazine that was just great. Soft, warm, and from the 4 hats I made, I was not able to keep one...
Knits up beautifully

Not easy to felt

This yarn has a lot of great colors, it is soft and easy to knit. However, I did not find it felted very easily.
Nice, but watch for lg felted joins

I purchased 8 skeins in the Dk. Heather Green colorway. Each skein has had at least 1 thick felted join. This isn't a big deal but 1 skein had FIVE that all needed to be cut out leaving so many ends to weave in. It is a nice bulky wgt and is otherwise smooth and knits up nicely.
Quality Classic

I just finished a gansey style pillover for donstion to an orphanage in a very cold climate. I was delighted to see how well this yarn behaves and what a high quality garment it produces. The yarn was uniform, very smooth to work with, without twists or kinks or imperfections of any kind.
The quality and value of Valley yarns is outstanding.
I have used a few other 'house label' yarns from other companies, and I could not honestly make such positive statements about some of them.
