Comments about Debbie Bliss Paloma:
Debbie Bliss Paloma is a joy to knit. It works quickly into sweaters you actually wear - every day! I've knit 3 of the Moss stitch jacket; each took about 30 hours of work. The colors stay true and the fiber reveals stitches beautifully. I'm a FAN!

Comments about Debbie Bliss Paloma:
Wonderfully soft, it felt light after working with Rowan Alpaca Chunky, but it still has a good weight to it compared to other alternatives. Really excellent price for the material. I love the braided yarn, it's easy to work with, feels wonderful, and is perfectly warm. This yarn really shines with cables.

Comments about Debbie Bliss Paloma:
I liked the chainette construction of this yarn. The only complaint I have is that the yarn bled when washed.

Comments about Debbie Bliss Paloma:
I am knitting a long cardigan with this yarn so I haven't tried wearing it yet but already I can say it is soft and beautiful, and very light for its bulkiness. The interesting chain construction (looks like i cord) makes it really light and it's lovely to work with. It's really warm as well so I'm looking forwards to wearing the garment - the true test will be using it to see if it sheds!

Comments about Debbie Bliss Paloma:
This yarn is wonderful. I made the oversize boat neck sweater in the Debbie Bliss pattern book. Loved it so much, I adapted the pattern to make a cardigan. The yarn knits up quickly, and is very easy to work with. I have recommended it to friends. I recently bought two more colors on sale to make sweaters for my family.
