I heard so many reviews on Ravelry, I had to try it. One caution however, I took a long time selecting the colors I wanted, and viewed the samples on several computers - however, the thumbnail images for color selection on the WEBS site are much brighter/ lighter than actual. My only disappointment was when the yarns arrived, they were MUCH darker when I anticipated.
That said - it knits up beautifully and the yardage makes it a great value!

Nice colorways, and good hand for knitting, BUT my skein had 2 knots. For yarn this expensive, that's not acceptable. I would also hand wash as machine washing resulted in socks shrinking about...Read complete review
Nice colorways, and good hand for knitting, BUT my skein had 2 knots. For yarn this expensive, that's not acceptable. I would also hand wash as machine washing resulted in socks shrinking about 25%.

Comments about Madelinetosh Tosh Sock:
I bought my "Molly Ringwald" pinkish toned yarn from my LYS, not WEBS. My two skeins had no knots, but I agree knots would not be acceptable in yarn of this quality and price point. I made a large triangular shawl from a Ravelry pattern; the subtle tonal color changes were showcased beautifully by the yarn and pattern.

With such pricey yarn I did not expect to come across a knot. Regia's quality is better IMO, and it comes to you wound up and ready to use.
