Comments about Frog Tree Meriboo MW:
I am making a baby blanket with this for a close friend. I am still working on it, and have enjoyed working with the Meriboo yarn. The colors that I have a rich and full of depth, I am more than half way through and have not found one imperfection in this yarn. I very much look forward to giving this to her. I have not washed it, so I cannot attest to it's washability.

Comments about Frog Tree Meriboo MW:
This yarn is delicious. I wanted to try a yarn with bamboo...and this has spoiled me! I am making a long vest and the drape and stitch definition are lovely. My students always comment on my choice of patterns and color of yarns...they are a tough crowd! They will love this piece! I am going to make a sweater out of the meriboo as soon as I finish this piece. First time I have felt compelled to write a review of a yarn. What a treat this yarn is!

Comments about Frog Tree Meriboo MW:
I just finished a sweater in this yarn and I love it. Today I am ordering more of this yarn in a different color to make another sweater. I did not tire of it, the colors are beautiful -- vibrant but soft at the same time with the bamboo sheen, great loft and not at all heavy or itchy, and the gauge is flexible, between 22/30 and 21/27. This yarn is very easy to work with, the only con I have is this: sometimes at the very end of the ball the yarn would slub and break where it was spun, so watch out for this. It happened twice. It was not a bad problem. No knots in balls. Great yarn to have in the stash as it is not easy to find.

I was very satisfied with this yarn. It has a wonderful softness and gorgeous colors. The light sheen made it perfect for a flower scarf that I made while being extremely easy to work with. Would definitely buy again!
Comments about Frog Tree Meriboo MW:
This yarn knits up to a perfect DK weight without much effort. I got 22 stitches an 28 rows on 6's. It also looks pretty knitted up 20/28 on 7's. I wet blocked both swatches. The yarn has some textural interests created by this silvery fiber that runs through the yarn, giving it a luminous effect. Lovely to knit with. The stitches are fairly even. I am knitting a sporty, Sublime pullover in this yarn. I don't usually knit plain, solid color sweaters b/c I think they are boring, but in this case, the yarn is so pretty that it can carry the design. I chose the magenta color, which looks pretty much the same as it does on my monitor.
