Comments about Tahki Yarns Big Montana:
This yarn is quick to knit and quite lofty. THe knitted result is very open stitches. You don't want to make anything that will require an undergarment, like the vest I made. It shed all over my white shirt. I would not use this yarn again. Maybe just hats/mittens. Skip the garments unless you like keeping your cleaner in business!

Comments about Tahki Yarns Big Montana:
So far I've knit a few gloves with this yarn and it is incredibly soft and pleasant on the hands (when working with it or wearing it) and I'll bet it makes a great soft hat too! I did have to be gentle with it though because if you pull too hard it will pull right apart! Tying knots is tricky and I wouldn't recommend any stitches that involve putting a lot of strain on the yarn. Bottom line: I would definitely buy again.

Comments about Tahki Yarns Big Montana:
One of the main reasons I chose WEB for my purchase was because of the price. I love to knit but it can get expensive. I found a pattern that called for a certain type of yarn. Scanning the internet for this yarn I found it to be pricey. I came upon the WEB site and it had the yarn at a reasonable price compared to others. I was also surprised at how quickly I received it in the mail. I will start with the WEB as my first place to shop when looking for yarn.
