I'm knitting this yarn on 2.75mm needles and getting 7spi. It's a pleasure to knit with. Stitch definition is great. It produces a soft yet solid fabric. Had to get a third skein though to make a pair of socks to fit size 9 feet.

Not enough nylon
I've made many pairs of socks made with Santa Fe, and they all felt up, even if cold washed and line dried. However, the yarn is gorgeous and soft, so make your socks...Read complete review
I've made many pairs of socks made with Santa Fe, and they all felt up, even if cold washed and line dried. However, the yarn is gorgeous and soft, so make your socks bigger to compensate. 15% nlon isn't enough to prevent felting; should be at least 20% o more. Can't see dry cleaning socks!

This yarn is no longer available or I would buy more as it made lovely scarves. SO I'm not sure what point there is in a review of a fibre that can no longer be purchased!

Comments about Aslan Trends Santa Fe:
I used this yarn in a blanket mixed with about a zillion other sock yarns so the dull colors didn't matter that much. The colors look much brighter and prettier on line than they do in person.
Comments about Aslan Trends Santa Fe:
The colorways are gorgeous and the yarn seems spun tightly - the fabric of the sock is soft but dense. I can't get enough.
