Comments about Berroco Vintage DK:
I really like this yarn. I ordered the color "smoke" (gray) which is even prettier in person than it looked online. The yarn is soft, easy to work with, and has a slight heather thru it which looks fabulous when knitted up. I'm making a cropped cardigan with it and I love the way it's turning out. So far, I can see NO negatives about this yarn. I love shopping at WEBS!!
Service and delivery comments:
Shipping is always soooo fast. Granted, I only live 1 state away but it's amazing how fast WEBS gets the product to my door!

Comments about Berroco Vintage DK:
Can't say much other than I am very satisfied with this purchase.
I am in the process of knitting a cable sweater for one of my grandsons.
It is the first time I use this yarn and I like it very much.

Comments about Berroco Vintage DK:
I use it for a number of projects. I rarely find splices in a hank. The colors are beautiful and I have a personal preference for working with the dk weight. It doesn't block well because it's a blend. However, great for children's and men's garments because of it's softness and easy care qualities.

Comments about Berroco Vintage DK:
I haven't knit with this yet, but am pleased with the color and the feel of the yarn. I like Vintage worsted for gifts and other easy care items. Glad to see it offered in DK weight now. I am sure it will knit up nicely.

Comments about Berroco Vintage DK:
This yarn is soft and feels more expensive than it is! The colours are deep, gorgeous and even. I have very sensitive skin and this yarn has been a dream to work with.
It does have a slight loft that snags easily and can pill but the pills are easy to remove. This is ideal for projects that won't see much friction (ie. scarves, mittens, hats).
