INCREDIBLY DREAMY TO KNIT

This is the most incredible yarn I have ever knitted with. Super silky soft, I didn't want my project to be finished. The colors are subtle in low lights, used pastels. Used patterns especially made for these yarns. Highly recommended would purchase more to make larger projects!!

Yarn way too thin
This yarn is so thin (1 ply) I don't know what to do with it. The description should say that so a novice like me knows what she is getting. Beautiful color but ...Read complete review
This yarn is so thin (1 ply) I don't know what to do with it. The description should say that so a novice like me knows what she is getting. Beautiful color but very expensive and not what I was hoping for.

Comments about Artyarns Cashmere 1:
I'm using it to make/design several shawls. For one of them, the yarn will be used single and for another 2 strands of 2 different dyes will be held together. Next one will be double in the same dye.
The shawls will be mainly lace and garter stitch as garter stitch looks very beautiful with this yarn.

Comments about Artyarns Cashmere 1:
This yarn is so addictive. I have made two stole/scarves and am working on a third. I just wish they had more colors. It is, without a doubt, the easiest yarn I have ever worked with. I could not be more pleased with the results and all the compliments that come with it!

Comments about Artyarns Cashmere 1:
So disappointed. Not an inexpensive yarn, but it acted like one. No stitch definition and impossible to un-knit. I gave it to a friend to see if she could do something with it.
