Comments about Louet Gems Sport:
i try to use it only when it really counts for me, the yarn is a little on the higher end, but you get what you pay for, and well worth the price.
forgot to mention, great for stranded knitting as well

Comments about Louet Gems Sport:
I made a cabled vest for my husband and this yarn was perfect. Firm, thin, durable, no-nonsense yarn in a rich masculine burgundy. Be sure to wash your swatch when checking gauge, because it grows a lot in length.

Comments about Louet Gems Sport:
I love this yarn! Nice weight, pretty colors, doesn't pill. So far I've only knit it in stockinette but I've seen it used for cables and it's gorgeous. Heirloom quality.
