i used this yarn to knit the hemmingway boyfriend cardigan in tahki's anthology collection. the yarn was easy to knit with and very soft. i especially liked the texture, which knits up nubby, with slightly different shades of gray(i chose the color smoke). as i was knitting, several knitters i know saw how this yarn knitted up and bought it in different colors to make their own items. my cardigan looks great and i get compliments when i wear it. i also stay very warm in the cold weather.
