Value for money this is beyond awesome. Knits up beautifully, quite rustic and natural looking, and is wearing well so far. Recommend using a dye fix for the first was as it fades on washing- also drops after wearing (heavy cotton) so may want to knit a little shorter garment than usual (I ended up ripping back a couple of inches).
Wash Carefully

I loved knitting with this cotton, and have made 2 shrugs. I'm planning on knitting more with it. However, DO NOT WASH THIS IN THE MACHINE!! Not even on gentle cycle in a mesh bag. The color will fade like it's been left in the sun for months and the texture changes...it almost gets "too soft". Note to self: don't leave handknits in laundry basket in case DH decides to help with daughter's laundry. At least I learned this does not like gentle cycle like my Rowan Handknit Cotton or Cascade Sierra.
LOVE IT!!!

Not quite heavy worsted

The yarn is uneven, with thin and thick sections. Nevertheless, it's soft and the uneven thickness did not affect my project.
Worn Out Wonderful

I have very sensitive, eczema prone skin and this is one of the yarns I keep coming back to when knitting scarves. If you are looking for crisp, clean and perfect, go elsewhere. This yarn quickly develops haze and relaxes like a pair of worn blue jeans that you'd live in 24/7 if you could. Soft, bohemian, down on its luck but wears well over the long term. Colors are muted, not vibrant, but lovely. Yarn varies from thick to thin and works best in very simple stitches.
