        Bamboo Bloom Handprints

        Great product to work with. Beautiful colors, nice consistency and fluffiness expect if you wash it several times (even if in cold water, flat dry).

        I ordered this in two colors to knit mobeiouses, and it will work for them, however, I wouldn't recommend it for sweaters or anything that needs to hold its shape. Great color blends. The very soft, thick sections tend to fray, handle them very gently.

              I made the cowl pattern that was suggested & couldn't leave it alone. It turned out great & was so much fun.

                        I like it using a 13 needle and knitting the thin and purling the thick. The colors are really great!

                            The color shifts are beautiful and, sometimes, unexpected. While I was working on it people would stop and ask where I got the yarn.

                            This yarn makes a beautiful, quick to knit cowl. I gave them as Christmas presents and all 3 were very pleased. I made 2 short ones like the pattern calls for and then made one with 2 skeins that was 250 stitches for my daughter who lives in New York. Everyone raved about it and she loves it for warmth and beauty.
                            Great beauty for great price!
