Comments about Valley Yarns Berkshire:

This is actually a really great yarn. Its super soft and light weight and warm all at the same time. I have a little bit of a problem with it coming apart when i was knitting with it, but just keeping an eye and it and twisting it when it looked loose undid that. I use this for every thing that I need to felt

Knitted and felted a hat for my old man, and now his mother wants one too.

Love this yarn. It has a great color selection, it's very easy to knit, and the results looks so beautiful. It feels soft and has a nice feeling on my skin (and I usually have a problem with wool). It also knits pretty fast, so I'm almost finishing a sweater I just started this weekend. I think it's great for children and adults, I'll definitely make more projects with this yarn

This yarn is lovely, indeed. I've made a cardigan with it, and it has held up surprisingly well. I keep waiting for it to pill and shed, but I haven't had any problems yet. As should be expected, the baby alpaca lends a fuzz factor to the finished fabric. However, as noted, there is no shedding or piilling after >10 all-day wearings. I am very happy with this yarn, and will definitely use it for other projects in the future. And what an awesome color palette!

I knitted a garter stitch and cabled jacket from this about two years ago and it's held up fairly well. As others have noted, it's loosely-spun single-ply, so it does pill significantly. Still, for the price, it's a solid yarn. The finished project is very soft and luxurious-feeling. Reworking cause me fuzzies and quickly-untwisting yarn.

This is lovely, soft yarn, but be aware that it is a single ply that is loosely spun. It's probably better for hats than for mittens as it is already pilling and probably won't take a lot of abuse well. Using rounded-pointed needles will help reduce splitting as you knit. Washing and drying flat did not affect the gauge, but it did flatten the appearance of the cables.

I knit the grand kids (and everyone) mittens with this yarn~keeps it's shape in the snow and the natural color is perfect for MITT-sicles (mittens dyed with Kool-Aid)

I love this yarn. I've felting everything from pot holders to a yoga mat bag, which called for a much more expensive yarn, and this yarn was a PERFECT substitute. I've used it for non-felted hats, too. Beautiful colors, beautiful texture, and a great price!

I love the softness of this yarn and it still holds it's shape well. Very easy to knit with and the light pink is a beautiful shade. I would definitely use this yarn again.
