I made 3 sweaters in 3 different sizes for my neices a year and a half ago. By this time the larger sizes have been handed down, and the sweaters have seen the washer many times. They have held their shape and color beautifully, perhaps becoming even softer. The stitch definition still shows off the cables. I will certainly stick with this yarn, especially for my grandchildren and other kids on my list.

Though I like working with this yarn, one disadvantage is that the fiber splits very easily especially if one is knitting in garter stitch. I do not see this as often in other yarns with similar qualities.

Not sure where to start, but this yarn is incredibly reliable, for every project and any age. It's quality is very consistent, it feels amazing, it knits beautifully, and shows beautifully the pattern, the variety of colors makes it just right for every age. I've knotted afghans, cowl, sweater, mittens, and amigurumi from the leftovers. It all came out great. Love also the yardage, which makes the price just right. Looking forward for the vintage colors.

EXCELLENT yarn - I can't make enough positive comments about it! Feels great - smooth and soft to the touch. Knits easily; a little splitty, but not nearly as bad as some other yarns I've worked with. Added bonus: it's machine washable - a must for a working parent on the go all the time! I'm knitting a sweater with this yarn, and I've knitted several sweaters with the Chunky variety and a hat with the DK version. No matter what the weight, I have fallen IN LOVE with the Berroco Vintage line of yarn!

This yarn is so beautiful and soft to the touch. Prior to the first project that I made with the Berroco Vintage, (a blanket for my Mom for Christmas using Tide Pool and Breezeway) I had been using yarn from a craft store, but I don't think I'll ever go back. It knits up quickly, and the stitch definition is beautiful. I was pleasantly surprised at how soft it was when it knitted up, and while I used it to make a blanket, as previously noted, I will also be using the remaining yarn to make a pair of mittens for myself. It was also discountable, so this beautiful yarn was comparable in cost to the yarn I was buying in craft stores.

The one thing I would say negatively about the yarn was that in some cases there was less yardage in the Tide Pool color than the Breezeway, but not enough of a difference that it affected the project that I was making.

I just finished a hoodie for my son using this yarn. It has enough wool to feel really great, but it is machine washable which is ideal when making something for a three year old! It turned out really beautiful. He's worn it a couple of times so far and already gotten many compliments!

I have been making sweaters for my grandchildren with this yarn. Love it!

This yarn is good for babies and afghans because it is washable, warm and very soft. I am making the Blue Sky Eyelet Baby Blanket (with the ruffle) out of the Chunky in Pink. It is so luxurious! I want to use the worsted in a vest for my husband next. It is not splitty at all. Some who say it is should try a different type of needle - it will make a difference.

I have gotten this yarn more than once now. First made my daughter a jumper and the color was beautiful (lilacs) and the cable-ing showed wonderfully. We washed it (many times on cool) and it's held up fabulously. So I ordered more yarn to make my boys matching vests with the same cables as my daughters vest. I haven't had much trouble with the splitting. I guess since I'm a relatively inexperienced knitter I just don't know enough. But this yarn has by far become my favorite.

Love this yarn; no pills, no fraying or splitting. Works up beautifully and colors are awesome!
